We are committed to providing you with supported, varied study options that suit your needs.
Our courses are offered in a number of ways, including the interactive e-learning models and what was previously known as our blended learning model, with delivery modes that are responsive to our current learning environment.
Interactive e-learning models
The interactive e-learning models replace paper-based theory with a combination of face-to-face teaching and user-friendly e-learning tools that can be completed anytime, anywhere.
You will be:
- guided through a range of interactive e-learning activities and resources, developed by professional learning designers in collaboration with Victoria University Polytechnic's educators, and;
- further develop your skills on campus with practical workshops and work placements if required.
Our interactive e-learning environment keeps you connected with our teachers throughout your learning journey, with a range of support services and assistance available.
Experienced & award-winning
We have refined and adapted our innovative learning models for a number of years, and won awards for our e-learning modules, learning design team, and learning model development in 2021, 2020 and 2019.
