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!"
