Beyond Brick and Mortar Podcast: VLACS on a Mastery-Based Approach in Virtual Learning

In this episode of TLA's "Beyond Brick and Mortar" podcast series, which features leaders of established virtual and hybrid learning programs from across the U.S. as they discuss what makes their programs a success – and what they had to learn along the way, we chat with Dr. Steve Kossakoski, CEO at Virtual Learning Academy Charter School (VLACS). Learn about their mastery-based approach, emphasis on meaningful discussion between students and instructors, and advisors who support students throughout their entire virtual learning journey with the school.
