Going the distance with distance learning.

Studying can be stressful. Having to juggle family, work and social commitments plus trying to study, can be tricky. However, by studying through distance learning, these issues can be managed and you can work your studies around YOU and YOUR life.

Still have a few unanswered questions about distance learning? We’ve  teamed up with Premier Training to provide three videos packed full of top tips to help you out. Whether it be time management, how to create a revision schedule that works for you, or even how you’d go about making the jump from foundation to advanced, we have it covered. 

In each of the three videos Sam Hannigan will be devoting time to specific topics, namely the foundations of distance learning, how to gain your professional membership, as well as how to step up and advance your studies. Sam Hannigan is the Programme Manager at Premier Training and is a qualified teacher with over 15 years experience of teaching the AAT.

Below are some of the topics that will be covered in each video.
