How does online learning work?

Once you have successfully enrolled on one of our courses, you will be given a unique student ID number which allows you to access all of your learning resources online, through our university student portal called Course Resources.

You’ll have an allocated online tutor who will support and navigate you throughout your learning. Online student communities, such as discussion forums, provide engagement with peers in the learning process.

Studies are undertaken through a virtual learning environment (VLE) called Blackboard Collaborate, where course content and resources will be available. You will have full access to the university’s range of online services, eg. e-library, student support.

At a programme level, you can engage through online social and community spaces with peers from around the world.
