7-Week Hybrid Program
Mondays – Fridays from July 5 to August 18
For the upcoming 2023 Summer semester, Accelerate plans on conducting hybrid classes. Instructors will be on-site simultaneously teaching in-person students at our facilities and remote students learning online from home. As we continue to take the necessary precautions to mitigate the risks of COVID-19, our in-person seats are limited and will be on a first-come first-served basis. Accelerate will continue mandating mask-wearing on premises, and full vaccination for both students and teachers is required.
