Start Learning - Distance Learning Experts

5 Great Reasons to Learn by Distance

1.    Flexibility: You can study when you want, fitting learning around your busy schedule. It can be impossible to arrange time off from a job to study, particularly if you are looking to change careers or build up a new skill. It can be equally hard to fit the school run, feeding and playing with your kids around rigid college hours. Distance learning lets you pick when you will study - so you learn when you have time.

 

2.    In your own space: Distance Learning lets you pick where you want to study too. We have student that do all of there studying in lunch breaks and others that replace a couple of hours of TV each week with study sessions instead. The key is you choose where you study! At your desk at work, in the living room at home, in your bedroom or even in the bath. (Study materials can get a little soggy!)

 

3.    Start when you want: Traditionally learning has set term times and start dates. We operate a roll on roll off methodology. This means you can start whenever you want. Learning is best when you are passionate – we let you strike when the iron is hot.

 

4.    Take as long or as short as you need: If you want to race through your course that’s fine with us! Just increase the number of hours you are prepared to study each week. If you have struggled with a subject before take your time and make sure you don’t move on until you are ready! No one is going to rush you on before you really understand.

 

5.    Study what you love: With over 150 courses, there really is the right distance learning  course for the right person! If you are not sure what will work for you, give us a call on 08000741222

Dr Doom – How do we prepare for the future!

Dr Faber is one of the few experts who predicted the 1987 stock market crash as well as the current recession, so his view of the future is a particularly interesting one.  Speaking at the beginning of the week to a number of investors he made some fascinating warnings.

The first centred around economic instability not being the only major factor and reminding his audience that if their was another major war many business would cease to function.

He asked fund managers what would happen if the internet stopped working or mobile phones were cut off. He went as far to say that fund mangers should consider buying houses in the countryside to avoid attacks on cities.

He also asked some interesting questions about wealth – What assets can you carry with you if you could?

Although these are spine chilling warnings, they do bring up some really interesting points about businesses and people becoming very reliant on the status quo. In a situation like Dr Faber was describing all you have left at the end is yourself and your skills. Which is why investing in yourself with distance learning is such a good idea.

Studying courses like Plumbing, Management and Electrical Installation by distance learning gives you skills which will always be in high demand and will always be yours! Making you more employable whatever happens in the world.
