Distance Learning
Distance Learning - for everyone
Distance Learning is a more individual and
flexible way of learning. Distance learning is a mechanism to
study courses that you would normally study at College or work without
the inconvenience of travel or time off. Our Distance Learning
allows you to study at your own pace, wherever you
decide (normally at your own home) and in a way that best suits you.
Distance Learning courses are available in
a variety of forms that you choose to best suit your needs or
circumstances. Our Distance Learning courses are available as a
Correspondence Course (Paper based), e-learning
(interactive CD-ROM or DVD) and are available to study online by
logging on to our purpose built Distance Learning VLE (Virtual
Learning Environment).
Distance Learning - Less expensive
Distance Learning is much cheaper than its
traditional counterparts. Distance Learning does not incur the
overheads Colleges or traditional training companies do which are
generally recognised to be in excess of 50% of the cost of any
particular course (building, heating, payroll, cafeteria costs etc).
Distance Learning also does not suffer form excessive provision
(teaching, room and materials) costs reckoned to account for 20% of the
cost of a course.
Distance Learning, therefore, means
much better value for money. You only pay for the education you receive
and are not footing the rest of the 70% of costs the traditional
organisations will add. Distance Learning therefore has an
inherent advantage in that it is much cheaper to provide without
affecting the quality of the knowledge or qualification being gained.
Distance Learning - Quality & Accreditation
Distance Learning courses are available at all
levels up to and including Masters. Distance Learning courses
undergo as many if not more quality checks as their traditional
counterparts in Colleges. Indeed our courses are in use at many Colleges
around the World.
The knowledge gained from our courses is our main
focus. We provide accreditation and certification where required but not
everybody needs or wants it. The old adage of passing your driving
test doesn't mean your a good driver is our course design mandate.
