Capella University’s FlexPath learning format is a competency-based education that measures what you can do rather than the hours you spend in class. You demonstrate mastery of skills and knowledge – competencies – through real-world assessments.
Set your deadlines within the first 12 days of each course and adjust them if life changes. Finish each course within 12 weeks. Finish early and start the next course right away.
With Capella FlexPath, you pay one flat tuition fee for each 12-week billing session. You take one or two courses at a time and can begin another course after you complete the current one, allowing you to complete as many courses as you can during the session. Your total cost depends on how many billing sessions you need to complete your program. Books, supplies and other fees apply.
Move quickly through topics you already know and spend your time on new material. Your experience may help you progress faster.
Assessments reflect real work, such as building a business case or making recommendations from a company’s quarterly reports. Faculty evaluate your mastery of each competency as distinguished, proficient, basic or non-performance. Your competency map shows your progress on each one.
FlexPath is available in select programs. See which programs offer it.
