This Certificate course consists of a series of 18 modules organized in 8 units completed entirely online and on a self-paced basis. Students have access to the course site after they are enrolled, applications are processed on the second and fourth Thursday of every month. Students have up to 6 months to complete all coursework from the date they apply. This course is suitable for those who need to complete their TEFL/TESOL Certificate in a short period of time or by a specific date.

The 120-hour Online TEFL/TESOL Certificate has the most comprehensive curriculum but due to its self-paced nature, students are not required to meet weekly deadlines and they don't interact with an instructor or their classmates. Students are expected to spend 120 hours working through the course content. Each module consists of an introductory lecture that summarizes the module readings and videos. Every two or three modules, students take a quiz and need to obtain a minimum score of 75% in order to progress to the next unit. They also need to complete a practical assignment where they apply the knowledge acquired. At the end of the course, a Final Portfolio with the collection of assignments is submitted for review by CESL faculty.
