Hi there, we offer a range of early years courses, I have attached a
link to these below:
https://www.open.ac.uk/courses/early-years
When studying with us you will study on a module by module
basis. This means that you can pick your own study intensity, you can study
full time or part time. Part time requires between 16 - 18 hours a week per 60
credit module. Full time requires 32 - 36 hours per week for 120 credits worth
of study. If you start part time you can switch to full time if you so wish and
if the module is available at that time. If you are intending to study
part-time the minimum time to complete an undergraduate degree would be 6
years. However, if you are intending to study full-time you could complete your
studies within 3 years. Most of our students study part time, completing 60
credits a year. This will usually mean studying for 16–18 hours a week.
Our undergraduate modules are taught by
supported distance learning, which means that students usually study on a
part-time basis, entirely from home. You will be sent written module material
that is either sent to your home together with other learning materials such as
books. All our modules require you to have regular access to a computer and are
taught completely online.
