AIB Course Descriptions
Many AIB courses are now available in an online classroom format so bankers can complete the course from any computer with Internet access. Courses are facilitated by an instructor who guides students through each week's lesson and is available to answer questions and provide feedback on assignments. Each week, students receive an assignment that includes reading a chapter in the textbook, completing a short assignment, and taking a self-check test. In addition, students collaborate with other students using electronic discussion board, chat rooms, and e-mail. Examinations and quizzes are taken electronically over the Internet.
