I’m evaluating Embry‑Riddle’s 8‑week online ARP4754A/ARP4761 safety and DO‑178C integration module that meets Tue/Thu 19:00–21:00 ET to tighten our MBSE-to-digital thread and reliability modeling workflow. For those on J1, did your RO/ARO and host HR accept this kind of non‑credit continuing ed, and what exact documentation or hour tracking did they require to keep SEVIS and sponsor rules satisfied?
I’ve been in a similar situation with a course at Embry-Riddle… My RO just asked for proof of enrollment and a simple breakdown of hours per week, so I kept a log and sent that every month. It helped to clarify things right from the start, so maybe keep that in mind with your documentation.
When I took a similar course that met on Tuesdays and Thursdays, I found it helpful to have my RO confirm what documentation they preferred upfront… It can save you time if you ask for their requirements early, especially regarding proof of hours tracked. Good luck with the integration module; it sounds like a great opportunity for advancing your skills.
