Courses are delivered in a modular format with one course per module. Each module takes five weeks to complete, with four of those weeks dedicated to online activities and interactions. At the end of week four, students can attend a face-to-face or e-tutoring session to review the topics. Finally, at the end of week five, students take an exam to finish the module.
This format allows students to focus on one course at a time, giving them ample time to absorb the material. With the combination of online activities and a review session, students are well-prepared for the final exam. All in all, this modular approach ensures that students have the best chance of success.
This means students will take a course/module one at a time within 5 weeks as follows:
- Week 1 to 4 – online activities and interactions
- End of week 4 – Face-to-face or E-Tutoring (live session) for revision
- End of Week 5 – End of course/module face-to-face examination
