About the Program

• The PocketEd Program is designed for deployed or soon to be deployed servicemembers who have little to no internet access.
   
• The PocketEd Program requires a certain type of student - one who is very self-directed and self-motivated. We view it as a means to accommodate students in extraordinarily difficult environments; however, students who may encounter difficulties staying on task and motivated with their studies should first explore our 8-week online program.
   
• We highly suggest that students who have never completed a college course start with an online course first, as they are more structured.
   
• NCPACE eligible commands are not eligible for this version of the PocketEd Program. Please check with your NCPACE site representative for that version of the program.
   
• There are currently 9 courses that are designed to be completed within 12 weeks. All assignments are paper-based; having internet access is not necessary. Each course will require proctored exams; see steps to register. The student's proctor will administer all exams and then return all assignments at the end of the course.
   
• Students who enroll in the PocketEd Program will receive a PDA with their first course packet. The course SD Card provides all needed information for completing the course such as, course syllabus, reading assignments, and course schedule and course lessons.
