AAA 1001/AIMS 101
We do a lot of things together at Aims, and AAA 1001/AIMS 101 is one of those things.
This course meets twice a week for just 5 weeks. You'll gain great benefits for just 20 hours or less of your time - no textbooks required. Upon completion, you may qualify to earn a 3-credit tuition waiver.
Same Class, Different Benefits
AAA 1001 and AIMS 101 are the same class with different benefits:
- AAA 1001 is the for-credit version where you'll earn one college credit.
- AIMS 101 is the free, non-credit version.
Aims has so many resources it would have been nearly impossible for me to know all of them without this class.
