The benefits of online learning

Is there ever a right time to start a Master’s or Doctoral study?
There are many reasons why one cannot start their Master’s or Doctoral study. It could be a lack of funds or time, or it could simply come down to the fact that your next country of residence is still a mystery.

Are you too busy? Do you spend more time travelling from one destination to the next instead of in the confines of your own office? How many times have you re-located? If any of these scenarios sound familiar, then it may be time to consider pursuing higher education in an e-learning environment.

Study online, graduate on campus
Donned in cap and gown attire, a familiar name is heard resonating around the graduation hall. A buoyant walk to the podium to proudly claim your postgraduate degree from your university ensues and the celebrations begin. This enthralling scenario has been experienced by thousands of working professionals who have been able to pursue a Master’s or Doctoral degree due to the flexible and accommodating nature of the virtual classroom.

The benefits of online learning
If you are interested in finding out more about the benefits of online learning, the University of Liverpool is hosting an information session at Amsterdam FOAM (Keizersgracht 609) on Thursday, 9 June at 7 pm.

This is a great opportunity to join a free FOAM tour and meet University of Liverpool alumni from the Netherlands, Singapore, South Africa, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Ghana and Jamaica.

Dr. Lisa Anderson - Lecturer in Management Education at the University’s Management School and Director of Studies for the online MBA - talks about the University’s online learning environment, experiences in the classroom, and the diversity of the students on our programmes.

The online learning experience
The University of Liverpool, in partnership with Laureate Online Education, have developed a 100% online learning environment that is successfully delivering educational and career benefits to thousands of professionals across the globe. In fact, over 3.500 working professionals have already graduated with an advanced online degree, ranging from Management, Law and IT to Psychology, Public Health and Education.

With no geographic restrictions and with flexible lecture times, dedicated professionals from over 100 countries now have access to a level of higher education that is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Let’s not forget that the opportunity to network, socialise, and exchange ideas with a multi-cultural student body is an unbelievable advantage in today’s global economy. Small virtual class sizes and personalised programme content are also extremely popular features of an e-learning environment that meets the University of Liverpool’s high academic standards.

The academic guidance you receive from the day you enrol right up until the day you hear your name ring out from the podium at graduation, is truly exceptional and will be remembered long after your Master’s or Doctoral degree certificate is framed and hanging proudly on the wall.
