Studying online
How does studying online actually work?
The world has changed. It’s been a long time since ‘education’ only meant ‘sitting in a classroom or lecture theatre in front of a teacher’. Thanks to technology, you can be thousands of kilometres away from your teacher. You can switch from video lectures to text to multimedia demos in seconds. And you can still get in touch with your trainers and other students when you need.
Choosing to study online is now mainstream. It’s popular with people who don’t have time for old-school education. You can learn when you like, where you like, and at your own pace. No more blocking out hours out of your schedule. Take it one step at a time – or five minutes, as the case may be.
What is it like?
Studying online is a rich experience. Think of it as beyond classroom learning. You’ll get direct access to your trainer, and handy reference texts, including PDFs. But you’ll also get heaps of resources that enhance your experience. Like videos, demo templates, multimedia presentations, webinars, and interactive content.
You’ll have access to Moodle, our online learning management system. On top of the course content, Moodle contains all the assessments that you’ll complete and submit online.
How does studying online actually work?
Wherever you’ve got an internet connection and a browser, you can study online. You generally don’t need special equipment, and there’s no need to download software.
To get to your virtual classroom:
1. Go to the Monarch Institute website
2. Click on ‘STUDENT LOGIN’
3. Enter the login details you got when you enrolled
From there, you’ll be able to see all the study materials and assessments you need.
Want to get social with your classmates? We’ve got a huge Facebook group for Monarch Institute students, so you can chat with people who are learning what you’re learning. Or people who’ve already completed it successfully. You can even get in touch with trainers on the fly. That is, if you prefer Facebook to Skype, email, or old-school phone calls…
What about student support?
Speaking of getting in touch with your trainer – you’ll always be able to reach them one way or another. We provide unrivalled student support while you study online with Monarch Institute. Your trainer is available to speak to you at a time that works for you.
