Compare prices, benefits and guarantees of each distance education center.
Prices vary widely from distance education center to another. It is not without reason, we must not hesitate to compare.
For more information:
* order a brochure;
* contact distance training agency by telephone and internet;
* the speed and availability to answer can be a first serious index.
In general you can not visit the distance learning enter. The premises are not designed to receive public.
Distance education centre: the questions
As you will learn, here are some important questions:
* How does distance education centre send courses? There can be:
- A shipment of the entire course at one time; then it is for you to arrange throughout the curriculum.
- Regular shipment, staggered by lesson.
* What is the follow-up of the distance distance center? Communication with teachers is more or less possible:
- it may be non-existent;
- a platform or an email can be made available;
- some distance education centers offer more or less regular meetings with the instructor and other students.
Good to know: asking for the number of students followed by each tutor or teacher can give you an idea of the monitored quality.
* What assistance?
- The distance education center usually provides technical assistance, in case you are unable to open a document on your computer for example. But this is not systematic.
- In most cases, it is for you to register for examinations or competitions.
* The contract with the distance education center: re-read your contract carefully because it must bring together:
- your commitments and those of the organization (correction period and date of back duties...);
- price and payment terms;
- the termination provision;
- what the price includes.
If the center of distance education adheres to a national organization of distance private education, this is a guarantee of quality and recognition by the ministry of education, but the absence of that membership does not mean that it is a scam.
Warning: some distance training organizations offer very high prices, but the price is not necessarily a guarantee of quality. Whatever the price you choose to pay, be careful.
Analyze your needs
Distance education is a challenge that requires ambition, discipline and determination, but above all to define your needs to not go wrong:
- Analyse your route.
- List your interests.
- The available weekly time.
- The time for which you are ready to follow this project.
- Do you have a limit to complete your training: a few months, a year, several years?
- Do you have the equipment and the knowledge to use the course material: computer, internet, CD player or cassette...?
- What medium fits your mobility and your way of working?
