How do I?

Find a course

There are 6 ways to explore edMIAMI.com.

  1. Hit an “audience” tab directly under the smiling faces on our home page—Kids & Teens, College Students, Adults or Corporations—to start looking for courses.
  2. Click on Departments & Programs (on the bar atop the home page) to check out a list of general areas encompassing our course offerings (e.g., Computers, Finance & Accounting, Test Preparation & Study Skills, etc.) These departments link you to courses.
  3. Choose our Quick Search option at right on the home page; it’s especially useful when you’re in a hurry and know exactly what topic you want.
  4. Pick the Advanced Search feature (the “Search” button at very top right of your screen or the link directly under Quick Search).
  5. Click on Course Catalog (on the bar at the top of the home page) or on Complete Course Catalog (under Quick Search) to see a listing of courses from A to Z.
  6. Hit Español at the far top right to begin a search in Spanish for courses offered in Spanish.
