About Distance Learning
Distance learning has been proven to be highly beneficial to a large variety of people.
With courses being delivered at different levels, distance learning can meet the needs of a truly diverse student body. High competition for jobs means having additional training and education can be a real advantage, whether someone is in the market for a new career or simply wants to progress in their existing position.
Flexibility
Students can undertake their course from just about anywhere, providing they have the right communications means, which is mostly just a computer and internet connection – and in some cases we can provide printed materials to even reduce this need. This allows students to work when and where it is most convenient without having to squeeze scheduled classes in to an already busy life.
Choice
If you live in a location with few or no colleges, or your subject area is specialised and not delivered by many people, distance learning allows you to choose from a wide variety of training providers to complete your education, greatly expanding your choice.
Level & Progression
Distance learning can help you obtain everything from introductory certifications to a full MBA.
Lowered Costs
Prices for online courses are generally cheaper than their equivalent classroom tutor-led counterparts and avoid the usual substantial additional costs, such as commuting, accommodation, meals etc. that are incurred when learning away from home.
Tutor Support
Tutors can teach students from all around the world using technology which allows them to facilitate collaborative tutorials, project work, focused content and educational enrichment via modern delivery methods. Distance learning brings you tutors who would not normally be available locally.
Learn while working
As distance learning can usually be completed on your own schedule, you can keep working full-time whilst studying. Keeping your job gives you more income, experience and stability while completing your course; giving you less to worry about and more time to focus on your studies.
Learning Style
People learn in different ways. Distance learning has many benefits for students as you take control of your preferred means of studying our material, and our course directors will help ensure you stay motivated and we’ll help you plan your study schedule.
You always have your course director, course administrator and fellow students available via interactive course forums, email and phone so that support is available and you can benefit from all important social learning.
