Core Courses

Designed to fully meet college preparatory requirements, Apex Learning's comprehensive courses deliver a broad curriculum to support teachers in creating rich, in-depth learning experiences for their students. Each course provides a complete scope and sequence designed to guide students in mastering critical skills and developing an understanding of key concepts as well as encouraging them to go as far as they can with their learning.

Advanced Placement Options

Developed specifically for AP students at the high school level, Apex Learning's online Advanced Placement curriculum aligns to the scope and sequence specified by the college board and to widely used textbooks. The online AP curriculum makes extensive use of multimedia in direct instruction tutorials to present key concepts. Multiple forms of representation address different learning styles, allowing students to learn visually, tangibly, verbally, or formally. Students have numerous opportunities to practice skills and apply concepts, often in real-world context. Open ended activities promote the development of higher order skills. The rigorous online AP curriculum has a proven track record of preparing students for success on the AP exams in college.
