I want information about further training or postgraduate study What method of study would you prefer?
Think about what method of study would best suit your time, career
plans and your pocket!
Some things to bear in mind:
-
Competition for full-time study is usually tougher than for
part time study
-
Part-time and distance learning study are less likely to be
funded
-
With part-time and distance learning you will be studying
for longer and course options might be more limited
-
if you haven't started a career related job yet and a postgraduate
degree is an asset/requirement for the job you want full-time
study might be the best option for you
-
If you've been working in your field for a few years, it might
be hard to leave your job to attend university
full-time. Part time study will enable you to continue gaining
experience in the workplace whilst undertaking a new
qualification. If the course is relevant to your job, perhaps
your employer will contribute to the cost
-
Distance learning courses allow you flexibility but require
considerable discipline on your part, as you will be working mainly
on your own.
