Auditing helps you learn what you love without seeking credit toward a degree.
Have you ever wanted to dig deeper into literature or language with world-class scholars for the pleasure of learning, but you don’t need to earn credit with papers or exams?
Do you not currently hold a Bachelor’s degree but would like to enjoy our Master’s level course content?
At Signum University, we have a range of auditing options:
- In Live current 12-week courses, Premiere Auditors can attend live lectures and participate in the discussion board.
- In Live and Flex current 12-week courses, Discussion Auditors can enjoy lectures (live or pre-recorded), participate in the discussion board, and engage in lively group discussion meetings.
- In past courses, enjoy pre-recorded lectures and participate in the discussion board entirely on their own schedule. Check out our Anytime Audit courses and Published Lectures.
Our recorded lectures are moving to the Signum Collaboratory! Click HERE to learn all about it.
