Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How can Aslib's Open Learning programme benefit me?
A. If you live and work too far outside London (or even outside the UK) to attend our scheduled courses,
our open leanring programme will give you an opportunity to learn the skills and techniques you would be learning at our public courses, without
having to lose time away from the office.
Q. How long will it take me to complete this course?
A. One of the advantages of this system is that you can learn at your own pace. The only condition we set is that
you must complete each unit, a 20 hour course, (the equivalent of a 1 day scheduled course) within 6 months.
Q. How can I learn new skills efficiently, working on my own?
A. You won't be on your own. Once you have committed yourself to one of our Open Learning Programmes, you will be supported
by a tutor who will offer you guidance and who will monitor your progress through marking your course assignments. You will also have
regular contact with your personal tutor via e-mail. You will be allocated as much one-to-one tuition and guidance with your tutor
as you need.
