the online course is in combination with the hands on learning. i don't think you can just take the online courses at nash. reading isn't good enough, you need to actually do it in front of the instructors so they can show you the proper way to handle the dogs and get the look you want to accomplish. They also critique you and show you how to improve.
when i was there we had a girl that was coming up from the shore a few times a week to attend classes. Classes are from tuesday to saturday but you don't have to go every day. You can pick which days at the beginning of the term you want to attend. you can go only on saturdays if you wanted, but it will take a longer time. i went T-S and finished in 2-3 months, after taking the online courses (you can take 4 a month).
