Back to School?

A few friends of mine both online and offline are going back to school nowadays. First it was GK, then Natrah and now another close friend is returning to her studies too although she's doing it slightly differently. She's doing it online! I really admire her for doing it because not only is she working, she is also a wife and a mother to two wonderful boys. Where do this people find the time??

I think it is totally a grand idea though. I mean if I can shop online and
earn online, what is wrong with studying online right? I might even consider taking the various Online Management Courses available nowadays. No doubt I won't need the certification per say coz I'm working with my hubby but it would be a nice achievement if not anything else.

So with those thoughts in mind, I let my fingers do the searching and I stumbled upon Kaplan Open Learning. The site has detailed information on all the courses the campus has to offer, entry requirements and how to apply for those courses. If that is still not enough, you an even request to download prospectus, do a virtual tour of the campus or request for a callback.

I must confess after reading "Why Study with Kaplan?", I'm pretty intrigued. Imagine, flexibility
in finishing the course you are taking. You can take from 2 years to 5 years to finish one course and as long as you have access to internet, you can study anywhere in the world! And get this, rather than exams, you have assignments! You'll get free textbooks and you'll be a graduate of University of Essex. Also the courses are economical as you can see from their "Fees and Financing" section.

Hmm... yes.. definitely intrigue
razz

Cheerio...

What next?
