Flexibly Scheduled Course Sections: Flexibly scheduled course sections are all course sections not meeting during the institution's regular academic term as well as all course sections meeting during the regular academic term offered in a substantially different manner than a fixed number of meeting times per week for all weeks of the term. Please see the Recently Asked Questions page for the FS for guidelines about reporting flex courses. The following types of instruction should not be reported as flexibly scheduled:
- Student teaching
- Practicum or internships
- Course sections offered as part of a continuous module format where registration must be closed for all individual components of the module no later than the 15th calendar day of the traditional academic term, and
- Course sections offered during an established regular academic term differing from the traditional institutional calendar. For example, all course sections associated with a specific program operating on a semester calendar at an institution that traditionally maintains a quarter calendar.
