This course consists of 26 modules across 6 units. Each module will cover a specific topic within ethics and consist of the following activities:

You are expected to complete 2 modules a week, according to the class schedule. For these purposes, each week ends on Saturday at 11:59PM (midnight), Buffalo (Eastern Standard) Time.

However, keep in mind that you also have an automatic, additional 24-hour grace period for completing your weekly modules. That means there is no penalty if you complete a week’s modules by that Sunday at 11:59PM (midnight), Buffalo (Eastern Standard) Time.

Each unit will end with a unit exam, which is due on the Monday after that unit ends, at 11:59PM (midnight), Buffalo (Eastern Standard) Time. A unit exam will be made available at least 12 hours before it is due, so by 12:00PM (noon), Buffalo (Eastern Standard) Time on that Monday. You will then have the full 12 hours in which find a time to take that exam.

Once again, though, keep in mind that you also have an automatic, additional 24-hour grace period for finding a time to take a unit exam. That means there is no penalty if you complete the unit exam by that Tuesday at 11:59PM (midnight), Buffalo (Eastern Standard) Time.

Just to repeat one last time: if you are running late in completing an activity, do not panic. All activities, including exams, have an automatic, additional 24-hour grace period.
