5 Benefits of Studying Online

As we are all patiently waiting to see how this year of uncertainty unfolds, one thing is certain… a lack of productivity has increased like wildfire causing us to have extra time on our hands and not knowing what to do with this extra time. Now seems to be the best time to prepare ourselves for the future by learning a new course and gaining qualifications that will lead to employment.

One of the more interesting aspects of online learning is the nature of engagement with the content. Some examples are:

- A multi-modal approach using a diverse range of teaching and learning activities.

- Use of authentic business software (e.g. Excel Solver) as learning tools.

- Interaction with learning peers, including video tutorials via Zoom and discussion board conversations.

- Application of real-world work case studies and reflection on and integration of participants’ own work contexts.

- Access to global experts and practitioners.
