Is the institution's default not to print course catalogs, course schedules, and directories, but instead make these materials available online?:
A brief description of the practice:
NAIT is consciously reducing the amount of printed materials where possible and combining other materials wherever it makes sense.
NAIT still publishes a Viewbook for full-time student recruitment, although the quantity is being reduced every year as more students choose to download the complete online version or customize an online Viewbook focused only on the programs of interest to them (customizable option was initiated in 2009/10).
A comprehensive calendar of full-time program information was discontinued in 2008, replaced by online program information.
Catalogs of continuing education courses (part-time learning) are available both in print and online.
A separate catalog of distance learning courses was discontinued in 2011; those courses are now combined with other part-time offerings in the one Continuing Education calendar.
In 2012, a separate catalog of Computer Training Centre courses will be discontinued, with these course descriptions included in the Continuing Education calendar.
The paper application form used for full-time programs was discontinued in 2010; applications are now made exclusively online.
