You can log onto a management course in your bedroom at midnight,
or in your spare time while at work. If youıre burdened by a remote
location or a heavy work or travel schedule, distance learning may
be the only way to polish your professional credentials.
Healthcare
organizations are finding that distance learning is a ticket to
survival. Distance learning gives better training at less expense,
while contributing to a measurable impact. "Itıs not a frill anymore,
itıs a necessary way to keep ahead," says Nick Wreden of the US
Distance Learning Association, which estimates that 85% of the Fortune
500 companies use some form of distance training. In particular,
distance learning for continuing education requirements shows cost
savings between 50 and 75% when compared with traditional delivery
continuing education programs, especially when taking into account
travel. Kaiser Permanente, says that distance learning saves $1.5
million per year over traditional techniques, primarily by eliminating
travel costs alone. Kaiser is the nationıs largest HMO with 100,000
employees in 18 states and the District of Columbia.
Our
advisors are drawn from leading healthcare professionals and educators
with a vast array of experience and knowledge. Each module is written
by prominent professionals and instructors in the field to help
you develop professional skills with the most authoritative, state-of-the-art
information available.
We
provide a level of quality education combined with a flexible learning
environment that can't be attained in a traditional program. Preliminary
evidence even suggests that distance learners retain information
better than students in traditional settings, because they are more
mature and motivated.
Our
modules are designed at a highly practical application level. We
believe that the knowledge and skills you learn can be used on the
job immediately. We subscribe to the motto, "Learn it tonight -
use it tomorrow!"
