part-time programs

Reduced course loads

Part-time programs are educational courses or degree tracks designed for students who attend fewer hours than a full course load, typically while working or managing other responsibilities.

Universities and community colleges offer part-time programs for people who can't commit to full-time study: She's earning her MBA through an evening part-time program.

The term also applies to workplace training conducted outside regular hours.
