Who are Leicester College’s distance learning courses for?

Distance learning courses are suitable for people who like to learn independently. Distance learning is an excellent option that can provide you with the necessary flexibility for learning at your own pace. You are empowered to organise your own schedule because you can choose where and when you want to study. Distance learning is useful if you want to gain qualifications from somewhere else in the world and do not want to travel. The costs of distance learning courses at Leicester College are mainly free of charge to those who qualify for funding, however, some courses have a fee.

There is a huge range of courses to choose from, including:

  • Health and social care
  • Business administration
  • Customer service
  • Team leading and management
  • Equality and diversity
  • Information, advice and guidance

Further Information
