Blended learning

We believe that learning in a blended way helps you to develop the skills that are needed to work in a digital workplace. Our approach to blended learning combines live online learning with face-to-face on-campus sessions. This flexibility of learning means you can balance studying in and around other commitments and join a community both live online and on-campus.

What is blended learning?

Blended learning combines timetabled live online learning and face-to-face on-campus sessions. With live learning making up 50% of timetabled learning activities, we have ensured the live contact hours you have with your lecturers has remained the same.

We have designed this approach to offer our students greater opportunities to interact with lecturers and classmates with the added flexibility to fit studying around other commitments. When you have timetabled live online sessions, you are not required to be on campus, but can book a study space and have access to the facilities and student support services on-campus.

"I suggest everyone should join Solent University, because of the blended learning which means you can stay at home one day and then go on the Campus and interact with teachers the next.

They offer you loads of help and The ACE team are always on the campus, so there's a lot of support."
