The JET program is free and designed to be completed in one academic semester. It includes asynchronous coursework on Canvas and readings to support bi-weekly synchronous group discussions, each lasting 1.5 hours. Meetings alternate between in-person and virtual each month. Participants are expected to commit at least 40 hours throughout the semester.
