Online Live Courses
You are an internet connection or smart phone signal away from joining a class – wherever you are! Using your laptop, phone or tablet, you can participate in a live class. You’ll follow the instructor’s presentation, use live audio or chatroom to answer or ask questions and be part of the real-time classroom dynamic. Lakeland's live courses are also digitally video-recorded and available when you can or want to access them.
