Hi Chris, JavaJeff, and InD,

Thanks for the feedback regarding weekends. It is difficult to schedule this event, because, in the current course, we have students from throughout the world, some in vastly different time zones. For example, we have students in North America, Europe, India, Japan and Australia.

We considered a week night, but it would not work very well for time zones outside of North America. Even within North America the times would not be ideal. For example, 6:00 PM PST would be 9:00 EST.

We do allow students to miss up to three classes and still receive the certificate of completion. Recordings are available, but we do want students to attend in person and contribute to the discussion.

We will consider a weeknight class in the future depending on overall demand for the course.

Thanks,

Blake
