Timetables of Online Courses
The Lebanese Arabic Institute is currently offering online courses only, and this will continue for the foreseeable future.
Because students join our online courses from many different locations around the world, we present the relevant scheduling information (dates, days, and times) in various time zones and with accommodations made for multiple time zone rules.
To view the upcoming course schedules in your own local time, simply click on your region and time zone below. In order to avoid discrepancies, make sure to select a time zone whose example city follows the same daylight-saving rules as does your location.
Most time zones and time zone rules are covered, but feel free to let us know if your location is not represented or if you need any assistance understanding the course timings.
