New higher education opportunities in the UK will be opened up to many thousands of potential students following plans jointly unveiled today by Kaplan, a global provider of education and training, and the University of Essex to provide a wholly online Foundation degree course.
The course will offer multiple start dates throughout the year with a continuous 52-week academic calendar, and will allow students to study wherever they have access to the Internet. Students without the time or opportunity to engage in a full-time Foundation course will now be able to pursue a higher-education qualification focused on helping them develop relevant and practical work-based skills.
The University and Kaplan have agreed to establish an affiliated college of the University, named Kaplan Open Learning, which will deliver the courses with degree awards being made by the University. Students will be able to pursue a degree without disrupting their work or family life. Thus the courses offer participants far greater flexibility than traditional full-time and part-time degrees that require attendance on campus.
