Learning Contract Information
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Learning Contracts are being phased out and are being replaced with online courses. Beginning with the Fall 2007 academic term, Semester Learning Contracts will not be available if the course is available by any other delivery option. Approval for Learning Contracts will be handled on a case-by-case basis by the Associate Dean of the appropriate college for the course. Six-month Learning Contracts will not be available at all beginning Fall 2007.

Learning
Contracts are courses that you can take without attending
resident class sessions. With Learning Contract courses, you
work on course assignments when and where you decide and
communicate with your instructor when you need to ask a
question or schedule an exam.
Assignments can be turned in through regular mail, Email, or
Fax.
The course syllabus for
most of the Learning Contract Courses are now available
online. Course syllabi and materials can be obtained by
clicking on the course title in the
list of learning contracts or
calling the Learning Contract
Office.
A learning contract is an agreement entered into by one who
wishes to learn and one or more individuals who assist the
learner to attain desired learning outcomes. Troy
faculty have developed independent learning contracts
that parallel requirements in university resident courses.
Learning contracts are available for most general studies and
approved academic concentration courses. Most learning
contracts are constructed to equal three semester hours. The
maximum allowable time to complete a learning contract is six
months from the signing of the contract. Extension of time
limits must be granted only at the request of the contracting
faculty member. However, course requirements may be completed
in less than the allowed time. No incomplete, "I", grades may
be awarded. Students may enroll in a contract course at any
time simply by contacting the Learning Contract Office.
