Teaching methods and style 

We’re a 100% online education provider, so we use a state-of-the art Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) to deliver our teaching, resources and assessments. Our system tracks and manages the learning process in real-time and provides you with immediate access to your learning materials. The VLE is accessible 24/7 and allows both students and tutors to actively take part in real-time conversations and live Q&A sessions. 

Assessment 

You will be assessed primarily through assignments. This could involve reflective journal entries, written pieces, or discussion forums. You are always aware of your current provisional grade which allows you to continually evaluate the success of your current study methods and identify areas to improve. We believe that this information helps you to make the most of your course. We achieve this by: 

  • having a simple and transparent assessment criteria 
  • providing a rapid turnaround for marking and feedback of assessed work 
  • ensuring you have regular contact with your Student Adviser
