Taking an online course is quite different from attending training in a face-to-face environment, but the great thing about online courses is that you can fit them into your lifestyle wherever you are, whenever you want.  They are so portable.  You don't get that kind of flexibility studying on campus.

With any online course it's important to have basic computing skills, good time management, and the ability to prioritise your commitments into a manageable weekly plan.  Making time in your week to login into your course each day is highly recommended to help you meet course deadlines. 

You can also structure your time to work at different parts of the course at times when it fits best with your other responsibilities.  For example, if you have young children or work full-time then studying in the evening when they are asleep may work well for you.  That's when you could attend to the parts of the course that require the greatest concentration, such as reading new material and completing assignments.  At times when you may get distracted might be best suited to participate in forums and do research activities.  It's simply a matter of what works for you and your lifestyle.

No matter what your lifestyle an online course can help you get ahead, particularly with a promotion or new career direction.  An added bonus is the ability to work at your pace and get through the course faster.  You don't have to wait for the next class! 

Our online courses are supported by experienced lecturing staff who guide and support distance learners by phone, Skype, email and forum discussions.

Give an online course a try.  You'll be surprised at how convenient it is.
