A modular programme of studies in distance learning mode for language professionals wishing to improve their knowledge and qualifications for the needs of the future. The staff have developed a reputation for excellence in distance education programme management.
Distance learning allows the student an opportunity to combine employment with study.
This means that students can remain in their job and retain earning capacity as well as engage in formal study leading to a higher degree. For language teachers, it also means constant access to the classroom where research data is easily available, and where new ideas can be trialled. The University provides a unique library support system to all programme participants. Follow the DiLIS link for the full range of services we provide. The programme is aimed at practising teachers with at least two years of teaching experience who have reached a state in their teaching career when they wish to relate what they do in the classroom to relevant theories, so that their practice is informed by the theories of language, language learning and teaching.
