About Distance Learning

Start with your desired programme – online and any time

You would like to continue your education and are looking for a way to do this part-time? Then we have the right solution for you. A distance learning programme allows you to continue your education flexibly while working. Distance learning is very popular with students of all ages due to its high flexibility in terms of time and place. The special thing about distance learning is that there is no prescribed semester start date and you can begin your studies whenever you want.

Distance learning is one of the most flexible options you have for continuing your education: You can start at any time and study entirely at your own pace. The choice of media you use for your distance learning is also entirely in your hands. For example, you can study online and also attend lectures online. You can take your exams from home, e.g. in the form of online exams or term papers.
