Professional Studies - Regis University Distance Learning Our distance programs use a variety of learning formats. It is also sometimes called mentored study. What sets mentored studies apart from other course formats is the relationship between the student and the course consultant, without the presence of other students. Mentored studies may follow either a pre-designed learning contract or an individually developed plan.
Online courses utilize the Internet to connect students and course consultants.
However, we anticipate much growth in this area over the next few years.
