Let's build a brighter future, together

Our courses are half and full-year courses. While our courses are designed to support learners from the beginning to end of the course, learners can begin the course at any time.

We have CTE courses that focus on financial literacy, computer science, health, and the arts. Check out our full list on our course page!

WASC ( Western Association of Schools and Colleges)

This is considered the “gold standard” of accreditations. It examines all aspects of a school, including the curriculum, faculty, administration, and learners. The accreditation is granted based on 3 year cycles. Our’s is valid until 2023. As part of the renewal process in 2022, we will have to undergo a comprehensive multi-day visit from accreditors. WASC accredits the school as a whole.

Cognia ( also known as AdvancEd) This accreditation focuses on the learner experience. It requires substantial documentation about the faculty and educational delivery, as well as learner data. We have passed the readiness review, so we are a candidate for accreditation. In the fall, we will undergo a comprehensive multi-day visit from accreditations which will determine how long our initial probationary period will last. Cognia accredits the school as a whole.

College Board In order to offer AP courses, each course must go through the course audit process and be approved by College Board. All of our current AP courses have gone through this process. The AP approval for each course needs to be renewed annually. College Board approves individual courses.

Learners can potentially earn college credit for AP courses if they take the exam in May. After taking the exam, they submit their scores to colleges. Colleges have the option whether to grant credit for those scores.

NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) NCAA requires a two step process. It reviews the school as a whole through a comprehensive process and then approves individual courses that learner-athletes can use to meet NCAA college requirements. As a school, Emile has received approval. The “core” classes offered by Emile have received NCAA approval.

UC A-G

The University of California requires that learner applicants take courses that fall within specific categories, labeled A-G. Going through the process of having courses approved by UC A-G ensures that a course will be accepted by a college when applying. While this system technically only applies to schools applying to the University of California system, it has become recognized nationwide as a rigorous standard so many other states have begun to use these standards.

Our teachers are subject matter experts whose careers range from university professors and high school teachers to content creators. All of our instructors share a passion for their subject and for making it approachable to all audiences.

Learner submissions in Subject courses are evaluated by highly qualified subject matter experts. Each topic includes formative assignments that build towards larger summative assessments in the form of topic quizzes, midterm, and final exam.

Partner schools can use the grading and feedback provided by Subject in different ways based on their needs. Some partners may prefer to use the feedback and grading as suggestions to guide their own classroom instruction. Others may prefer to rely on the grading and feedback more fully and simply give it a “final pass” before inputting grades at their school.
