A Look Inside the Remote Classroom

Continuous Collaboration
Participation is built into every lesson through breakout rooms, digital whiteboarding, demos, class discussions, and dynamic knowledge checks.
Same Proven Approach
Our remote courses mirror the campus experience, featuring the same curriculum, expert instruction, student support, and career services GA is known for.
Mason Griffin, Software Engineering Immersive Remote Graduate
“I felt Zoom and Slack were great for interacting with teachers and classmates. Although the class was 100% remote, I felt more engaged and involved than any other remote experience.”

Which GA offerings are available in a 100% live online format?
All of them! Take part in our short-form workshops, evening and 1-week skill-building courses, and career-changing Immersives from wherever you are. Our enterprise training programs can also be delivered to distributed teams in an engaging, online environment.
Do remote offerings take place on a set schedule or are they self-paced?
GA’s remote programs are structured around live sessions, offered in part- and full-time formats. Time commitments vary by offerings. If you are interested in self-paced learning, check out our mentor-guided On Demand learning experiences.

Our Admissions team can provide more details on the dedicated job support you’ll receive on the path to landing a new role.
Why would I opt to take a GA course remotely?
Our remote courses offer a learning experience that mirrors GA’s on-campus offerings but allow you to learn from the comfort of home. If you don’t live near a GA campus, have a busy travel schedule, or want to save yourself the commute, a remote course could be a good option for you, if available in your market. You'll still get access to expert instructors, learning resources, and our global community.
If you prefer to learn alongside your peers and can make it to campus, our in-person courses allow you to take advantage of our beautiful classrooms and workspaces.
Our Admissions team can advise you on the best format for your personal circumstances and learning style.
*All of our programming is currently offered remotely.
What equipment do I need to succeed in a remote course?
Requirements vary by course but, in general, you will need to have your own computer (a Mac is strongly recommended) and an external monitor (ideally 28” or bigger).
You’ll also need access to high-speed internet (wired Ethernet connection is strongly recommended) and a dedicated, quiet workspace where you feel comfortable focusing, preferably in a private room.
Do GA’s remote courses have any restrictions on enrollment?
Online courses are not open to enrollments for residents of the following U.S. states: Alabama, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. Remote courses are not available for Ontario residents at this time.
Am I eligible for financing for a remote course?
Remote financing options vary by region. Contact our Admissions team to learn more about your options
