Distance Learning

Through collaborations, we are able to offer more value and choice to our students, whilst enabling our partnering Academic Institutions to include Distance Learning programmes in their curriculum offer.  This gives prospective students a greater choice of programmes and alternative study patterns, whilst providing income diversity and growth for our partner Institutions.

At Engineers Academy®, we believe that partnership and collaboration lays the foundation for ongoing growth. With skills shortages anticipated in all areas of Engineering, flexible Open and Distance Learning courses play a vital role in empowering talented individuals to study Engineering at a higher level, with a view to embarking on a career in Engineering.

Innovation

Our Partner Academic Institutions have an opportunity to lead on innovation in the Engineering Education sector by offering full Distance Learning programmes, delivered through an innovative teaching and assessment platform, which embraces the learning preferences of the 21st Century, technology savvy learner.

By working with forward thinking Academic Institutions, Engineers Academy® aims to cement its reputation as a leading provider of Open and Distance Learning courses in Engineering.

Course Funding

Another benefit of a partnership arrangement is that it opens new opportunities for our prospective students to access Student Finance, through our partners, in order to fund their Higher Education studies. We are passionate about making learning accessible to students of all socio-economic backgrounds.  We do not want course fees to be a barrier for individuals wishing to complete one of our Engineering qualifications.

On a similar theme, we are committed to ensuring that all of our courses and programmes are affordable. By working with Academic Institutions that hold Office for Students (OfS) contracts, there is the potential to offset some of the cost of delivering and assessing the qualification, whilst still generating an adequate profit for both parties.
