What is distance learning?
Our flexible, online programmes will support you to learn new skills and gain qualifications through computer-based learning, at times and locations to suit you.
Choose from Employability Skills level 2, Essential Digital Skills or Functional Skills in Maths, English and IT up to level 2.
So why not take control of your learning – and gain an accredited qualification at a time that suits you!
Learners will need access to a laptop or desktop computer with at least a microphone (headset or built-in). A webcam is preferable. The computer used for the coursework must be the same device running the Zoom meeting, as the tutor will use screen sharing to guide and assess learners.
N.B. There is a significant amount of work around databases. Learners will need a working copy of Microsoft Access or equivalent database software.
NB: Android and Apple smartphones and tablets are not suitable; mobile versions of Microsoft apps do not have all the required functions.
The course materials have been designed around Microsoft Windows 10, Google Chrome and Microsoft Office 365, although other web browsers and earlier versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Access should be fine.
This is a level 2 course. Learners will need a good level of computer skills.
