Update Course / Refresher Course / Leveling Course / Remedial Course

My comment:

hope this helps!!
•Update Course - for bringing prior studies up to date (e.g. doctors who graduated medical school in the 70's take update courses to keep their knowledge current)
•Refresher Course - for reviewing prior studies (e.g. a graduate student pursuing his/her masters in educational psychology may wish to take a refresher course in statistics)
•Leveling Course - to compensate for different educational backgrounds and get everyone to be at the same level (e.g. at a language institute students with prior knowledge of a language may be required take a leveling course so that they can be placed in one of their basic, intermediate, or advanced levels)
•Remedial Course - to compensate for gaps or weaknesses in educational backgrounds and get everyone to be at the same level (similar to a "Leveling Course" but assumes negative performance on the part of the student, e.g. college freshmen are sometimes required to take remedial math or english courses in order to qualify for basic requirements such as college algebra or english composition I)
