Study from Home

Anytime, anywhere in the world

We accept students all year round. There are no starting dates. You may enrol at any time. All study is self-paced and SCI does not set assignment deadlines.

Where a student is financially subsidised by another party (e.g. an employer or government body) they may require a student to finish within a specified period. Students in such situations are advised to check with their sponsor prior to enrolling.

The majority of our courses are 100 hours long and is expected to take approximately 100 hours of study to complete. This can vary from student to student. If a student unable to submit their assign­ments for 6 months to SCI, they should advise the academy in order to avoid cancellation of their student registration.

 

Advantages of Distance Learning Over the Classroom

There has never been a better time to undertake a course of study by distance learning, for a career change, upskilling or simply for a hobby. In years gone by classroom education had some advantages over distance education, but that is no longer the case.

Being taught in a classroom setting is very costly today. Corners often get cut and services suffer. Today’s technology has at the same time made services through distance education more accessible, affordable and bigger and better than ever; without increasing costs. In the modern world, distance education often provides better opportunities than the classroom education, for interacting with tutors, and quickly accessing student support and information services.

As part of SCI’s commitment to embrace the new technologies, we offer a range of online courses which are highly interactive and feature self assessment quizzes, online videos and fast tutor access. Our aim is to provide you with the support and motivation necessary for the successful completion of your course.

Whether you are interested in our courses for formal professional training in your industry or merely as a hobby, you will find the SCI team friendly and helpful. A free course counselling service is provided.
