Online Education

We are now receiving an increasing number of requests from all areas of the globe about our online courses. Or answer is always the same: All our courses - just as our whole web site - are freely available to anyone who wants to use them in any way he or she sees fit. However, as a simple archive, we do not issue certificates or diplomas or award academic degrees. This is the sole privilege of universities. Indeed, so far, we know of several universities and organizations in various countries that have adopted our courses. It is entirely up to them how they use them and for what end. However, since online learning in general is growing by leaps and bounds, we feel that it may be useful to offer here a few introductory links to electronic teaching resources. While only a small fraction of them deal with sexual health, they may nevertheless give our users some hint as to the future development of higher education, including sexological education. Many of the technological features offered or discussed below will also play a role in the future online training of sex educators, therapists, and researchers.
