Benefits of online courses for professionals 

Flexibility and convenience

Unlike studying in a university or traditional classroom, studying online is undeniably flexible and gives you a great sense of freedom in your learning. You don’t have to worry about the application and acceptance process of university or attending your lectures on time. Our courses are tailored for those who work full time and part time and allow you to learn on the go, at your own speed and at a time of the day that suits you the most. 

Wide range of courses

Where traditional classroom learning methods meant you were only limited to the courses that were local and convenient to you, online learning has opened doors to a wide range of courses for professionals to choose from.

Whether you’re looking to upskill in Human Resources, Management or Digital Learning, we have a course for you!

Learn from the experts

Each one of our courses has been accredited by a leading awarding body within the industry. They ensure that all of our courses teach you the most crucial aspects of their industries and that they will allow you to thrive in your career after your studies.

Highly curated courses

One of the benefits of upskilling with online courses is the courses and learning materials are highly curated to ensure you are gaining as much knowledge and experience as possible.

Here at MOL, we partner with a wide range of professional bodies for management and leadership online training, HR online courses, IT courses and more! 

This ensures that our upskilling courses meet the professional standard required by employers and ensures that you get the valuable training you need that suits you and your goals. 

Support when you need it

The advantage of learning online is that you have the ability to request support whenever you need it. You will have access to tutor support through online forums, in assessment feedback and via webinars, meaning that you can refer back to resources as much you need. You can even ask questions to our online tutors with a quick and informed response.

Lots of networking opportunities

One of the benefits of online vs traditional learning is you will have the opportunity to network with a wide range of people from across the globe who work in your field!

With many of the professional bodies we partner with, such as the CIPD, you can opt in to their network so you can make friends in the industry and keep up-to-date with new and exciting opportunities!
