Questions and answers

How do I register?

Fill in the registration form and choose your course. The administration reviews it, then sends you a link on WhatsApp to enter the portal and choose your password.

My course isn’t on the list. What do I do?

Choose “Other — not in the list” on the registration form and write the course code and its English name as your university writes them. If we have a trainer for it we add it and register you; if not, we tell you why.

Do you teach students from universities other than Qatar University?

Yes. We teach students of universities in Qatar and beyond. Search for your course by its code, and if it isn’t there, tell us about it.

Are the classes live or recorded?

Classes are live on Zoom, on a timetable, and every class is recorded. You can attend live, or study from the recordings in the portal.

How is a course divided?

As the university divides it: the midterm stage (MID), then the final stage (FINAL), and in some courses a practical stage (PRACT). Each stage has its own classes and its own package.
