Solo Treks are online, asynchronous, and personalized courses for educators. This course format is designed for you to work independently. Each Solo Trek session lasts 5 weeks. There are specific start and end dates (see schedule below), but you can work at your own pace and time. There are no face-to-face or synchronous meeting requirements.

​

The course activities include watching videos, reading articles, applying your new learning, and reflecting on course content and current teaching practices. Each course requires 4 assignments. However, you can replace one of the weekly assignments with a Get Outside activity.  

​

Each Solo Trek can be worth 1 graduate credit, 2 graduate credits, 20 PDC points, or 40 PDC points. It's your choice! If you choose to take a Solo Trek for 2 graduate credits or 40 PDC points, one extra assignment will be required. To earn 3 graduate credits in one session, you would have to register for more than one course. Graduate Credit is offered through Wichita State University.
