Each DEDP course expects approximately 12-14 hours per week of effort from a prepared learner. Please keep in mind that this is an estimate, and some learners report certain weeks or entire courses taking much more or much less time, depending on the learner's academic background and comfort level with the topics covered.
Each week, DEDP courses release a lecture—broken into a series of mini-videos—with accompanying finger exercises and homework assignments corresponding to the course material.
Learners taking more than one course at a time should expect that each DEDP course will require this amount of effort: a learner taking two courses at the same time should plan for 24-28 hours of effort per week, and a learner taking all five courses at the same time should plan for 60-70 hours of work per week. Please note that learners are not required to take a certain number of DEDP courses each term.
