Solutions

"Our rural schools do not always have resources to teach Advanced Placement courses. We needed to level the playing field for all students. Online courses make it possible for us to provide an option for students who don’t have local access to AP courses."

Increase AP Opportunities and Improve Outcomes

Whether it is to increase Advanced Placement* course offerings, provide authorized AP* curriculum to classroom teachers, or ensure students are well prepared to achieve on the critical AP exams, Apex Learning can tailor a solution to address specific needs. Apex Learning offers options for both distance-learning and classroom-based programs with online courses authorized by the College Board AP Course Audit.

Create and Expand Access with Distance Learning

With a proven track record of student achievement, Apex Learning is helping high schools across the country implement distance-learning programs to provide their students with access to AP courses. The flexibility of Apex Learning solutions allows schools to address a range of needs that include:

  • Offering an AP program when local classes are not an option by enrolling students in AP courses with instruction provided by certified Apex Learning online teachers.

  • Filling gaps in an existing AP program and addressing schedule conflicts by enrolling students in AP courses with instruction by Apex Learning online teachers.

  • Creating a distance-learning program using local teachers and Apex Learning digital curriculum.

Support Classroom Teachers with Authorized AP Curriculum

One of the challenges for schools seeking to establish new AP programs or expand existing programs is supporting classroom teachers who are new to the rigors of teaching college-level AP courses. Teachers have a head start with College Board-authorized online AP curriculum from Apex Learning. Even experienced AP teachers may find the digital curriculum provides useful instructional resources to meet students’ individual needs. 

Prepare Students for Success on the AP Exams

To receive college credit for a high school AP course, a student must score at least a 3 — and, in some cases, a 4 or higher — on the College Board AP exam. With diagnostic assessments that identify each student’s strengths and weaknesses, personalized study plans that direct students to the most relevant instructional material, opportunities for practice, and tips on taking the exam, AP Exam Review** is an online study resource that helps every student perform at their highest level.
