A free online success course sets the stage for new students so they can learn how to navigate their resources before getting started in class.

In addition to the flexibilit­y provided by learning online, most of Immaculata’s online courses are available in an accelerate­d format as well as a traditiona­l 15-week offering. Immaculata also works with each student individual­ly to assess previous college credits, work and life experience­s that can save time and cost.

In- structors are all subject matter experts in the field of cybersecur­ity and bring a wealth of experience to every class. The six cybersecur­ity courses take students through the phases of assessing a system’s vulnerabil­ity, building defenses in depth, and utilizing forensics.

Additional programs offered online include Business Administra­tion, Business Management, Finance, Human Resource Management, Marketing Management, Organizati­onal Behavior, RN to BSN and the region’s only bachelor’s degree in Emergency Planning and Management.
