OVERVIEW
The FM Training Program (FMTP) is designed specifically for veterans and active duty military. The FMTP is centered on a practical and action approach to learning, by integrating practice and projects into the curriculum that help supplement and enhance participants’ industry experience. Each course is designed to target the fundamental concepts of FM. Arizona State University offers training and other educational programs, with the FMTP being specifically created for veterans and active duty military. The FMTP is considered a ‘Correspondence Training’ type of education program based on the US Department of Veterans Affairs’ website.
SCHEDULE
Each participant will receive a custom schedule with suggested completion dates for material and assignments/projects. This schedule is based on an average of previous student’s experience. The FM courses in this program can be purchased individually or as a program, as a result, the schedules vary in length according to the number of courses and the individual courses selected. The estimated time to complete the full FM Training Program is 12-18 months. For example,if a participant starts a FM Training on January 1, 2018, the anticipated completion date for all 10 courses according to the schedule would be May 6, 2019.
Material for the course(s) selected will be shipped in a package to the participant in the mail. The package includes the participant schedule, books, and all course content including assignments. All correspondence is achieved by mail. Additionally, copies of the course(s) material can be found online in which access information will be granted in the package received.
GRADES
Each course contains assignments and projects that are specific to the material covered in that course. The assignments and projects are graded and suggestions for improvement are made to encourage rigor. It is an expectation that the participant communicates with their organization’s executive team (if currently employed) on progress and shares completed assignments. Additionally, a progress report card is generated to communicate with participants about progress and grades.
