 Online Courses

Study online for an internationally recognised qualification from an accredited institution. MANCOSA supports an online learning environment with a range of higher certificates, diploma and degree programmes.

What is Online Learning?

This is a form of learning where you do not physically attend lectures on campus. Students who choose to study online do so by accessing course material from their digital devices, like a laptop, tablet or mobile phone, and by communicating remotely with their academic team.

What is the Difference between Online Study and Distance Study?

Since distance learning and online learning are connected to each other, it is confused with these two terms, but there is a definite difference between distance learning and online learning. The term distance learning stresses on the different geographical presence of the student from the educational institution in a learning process whereas online learning highlights the method of learning that is based on the Internet. Online learning is used as a mode of delivering the programme content for students who follow distance learning programmes.

How does Online Study Work?

We’ve adapted our teaching delivery to suit you. MANCOSA’s online programmes allow our student community to access resources or submit assignments by using an online portal. You will also receive instruction through pre-recorded lectures or by attending virtual classroom sessions. Far from being isolated, our growing online student community can interact with their faculty through email groups, discussion forums and organised online group activities.
