How does it all work?

  • You’ll receive all your study materials, by mail before your course begins, a feature not offered by most online courses. We believe that our courses allow all the benefits of online education with additional learning materials and support.
  • You can alter your study load to suit your needs and enrol in as little as 1 unit every trimester. Each unit requires around 8-10 hours of study per week.
  • You can submit your assessments securely online.
  • You can connect with lecturers and fellow students through group activities and a variety of communication channels within a learning community. In many ways it is more personalised and intimate than a traditional classroom based environment.
