Hi! I realized that I can't send PMs because I haven't been annointed as acceptable yet by AllNurses. I took the course with Dr. Furr-Rogers and would recommend it. Everything is pretty straightforward. I mean, it's a typical online course, so, most of it requires self-direction and motivation. There is an online lab portion (Late Nite Labs), coursework through Microbiology Connect (multiple choice and fill-in-the-blank questions), forum/class discussions to answer, and onlne tests. The tests are proctored. I took mine at home with a lockdown browser and laptop camera. I have four children and worked part-time (24 hours/week) while taking the course. I took it concurrently with Statistics and Chemistry (and earned As in everything), so it can be done. :) Let me know if have any other questions!
