Learning Options
Each Milpark qualification and course is offered through specified delivery mode(s). It is important to ensure that you are aware of this when you make your selection. Refer to either the fact sheet of the specific programme you are interested in, or contact your nearest campus for assistance.
Distance learning / contact learning
Milpark Business School offers education via both contact learning (face to face, classroom-based tuition) or via distance learning (students receive the learning material and are supported either through workshops, or through tutor contact made telephonically, via email or online).
Distance learning offers the student flexibility so that s/he is able to study after hours. This method of study is ideally suited for students who are also employed.
Full-time / part-time study
Full-time study means that students attend classes on a daily basis during the day. Thus the full-time students are not usually employed and, as they are either recent matriculants or school leavers, are able to attend classes daily on a full-time basis for the number of years required to complete the degree.
Part-time students are usually employed and so generally tend to be able to complete fewer modules over a longer period of time. Most part-time students choose distance learning programmes as this mode allows for more flexibility.
Student support
Whichever method or mode of study you choose, Milpark will support you in your efforts.
Distance learning students are provided with course materials designed to guide them through the concepts and skills to be acquired. In addition, we have an extensive Tutor Support network. Should you experience difficulties with your studies, you may contact a tutor via email and s/he will email or call you back.
Alternatively, speak to a staff member and s/he will refer you to the correct person for assistance.
