Students however have the choice of undertaking a MOOC course without enrolling in a Tubeclass, but need to have their assessments suitably proctored. Some Calwest elective courses do not have a Tubeclass, and in such cases students need to undertake the course via a MOOC offering, or at another accredited university.
