Courses, Lessons & Content
Each Homestead Academy course is created, owned and managed by the instructor(s). The foundation of each course are its lectures, which can include videos, slides, and text. In addition, instructors can add resources and various types of practice activities, as a way to enhance the learning experience of students.
Homestead Academy courses are entirely on-demand. You can begin the course whenever you like, and there are no deadlines to complete it.
Homestead Academy courses can be accessed from several different devices and platforms, including a desktop, laptop, and mobile devices. While we love our mobile phones, they are often slower so we always recommend using a personal computer if possible.
After you enroll in a course, you can access it by clicking on the course link you will receive in your confirmation email, or via the course page (provided you’re logged into your Homestead Academy account). You can also begin the course by logging in and navigating to your account page.
