How you study
Without leaving
your job or home you can study, write and submit assignments,
receive expert guidance from your CeFiMS tutor and advice from the
student support team. In addition to printed study materials, the
Online Study Centre allows students to work with
course materials, send queries to tutors and submit assignments
via the Internet.
When you take a
CeFiMS distance learning course you will be sent everything you
need to complete your studies. A typical set of course learning
materials would include:
-
Core text. All courses centre on
a specially written core text analogous to a series of lectures.
-
Textbooks and collections of readings.
Most courses also include one or more textbooks and a collection
of recent or classic articles of importance to the subject.
-
Study calendar. Students are
provided with a study calendar for each course which sets out
the schedule for your coursework and assignment deadlines.
-
Student handbook. Contains advice
on how to tackle assignments and written examinations. There is
also a 'Study Skills' textbook and an audio CD offering
suggestions on distance learning.
