Blended Learning is an optimal system of education delivery that combines online or e-Learning with traditional classroom methods. Blended Learning improves performance, results and creates more confident students who communicate better.
Most importantly, a Blended Learning approach creates graduates who adjust much easier into the workplace. Studies have also shown that Blended Learning has the power to increase information retention by rates of up to 60%, with 70% of students saying that they learn best in a blended environment.
At MSC Business College, we take great care in ensuring that you are provided with the very best learning methods to optimise your performance and career, which is why Blended Learning is integrated into the MSC experience.
