Distance learning courses

Ideal for those who work shifts, don’t have set working hours, or just can’t commit to a course with fixed times, distance learning offers an extremely flexible approach to learning.

Distance learning courses allow you to learn remotely, without attending any lessons in a classroom while still having access to a specialist teacher to mentor you throughout the course. 

These courses are broken down into bite-sized modules which you can revisit as many times as you need. Thanks to the flexible approach of distance learning, you can enrol at any point in the year.
