We have 2 Study Options for our World Service plus a range of optional extras so that you get exactly the right support for you. Both options allow you to start your studies when you want, choose when and where you want to study and set your own pace.
Option 1: World Service – 12 months support
This option provides delegates with unlimited access by Email to a dedicated specialist tutor for each module of your course for up to 12 months. Our tutors are practising marketing professionals who bring both teaching skills and current business skills to our courses. They will answer questions which arise during your studies, and provide examples and guidance on additional resources. This option also includes free access to live webinars with tutors and other delegates which run throughout the year. Timetables are provided on the College website and you can book your place on the webinars you want to join on-line.
Option 2: World Service – 24 months support
This option provides the same level of support as Option 2 but for up to 2 years. It is designed for delegates with busy work and social schedules who need more flexibility over the pace at which they study.
Both Options also provide the following support:
Course Director We have an experienced Distance Learning Course Director, Kiran Kapur, who provides support to all distance learning and overseas delegates. Kiran‘s role is to help you get started, work out a personal study plan, and be there to answer questions and help you keep your studies on track. This support is in addition to personal tutor support for each module of your course.
Study Guides Over the years we have developed a high quality set of Study Guides, compiled with leading publishers. They are complete with a step by step guide to the syllabus, real life examples, self test exercises and related assignments. They are downloadable and use the latest Adobe E-Book Reader software allowing onscreen reading, highlighting, and annotation - making them a truly portable resource. Alternatively you can download and print them.
Web Site Support We have been at the forefront in developing on-line delegate support. The delegate section of our website provides you with access to:
- tutor course notes and slides
- past exam papers and assignments, specimen answers and examiners reports
- a research facility including hotlinks to journals, other marketing organisations and useful websites
- Podcasts of Cambridge evening lectures freely available to download
- Webinars or on-line tutorials which can be attended live or re-visited
- RSS Feeds providing the latest marketing news
- Discussion Forum enabling you to ask questions and find other delegates studying your course or working nearby and form real or virtual study groups
- Marketing Trends - looking at the latest marketing topics and ideas
We know from experience that everyone has different learning styles and study preferences. Our ability to offer flexible choices to meet delegates needs has been one of the key drivers of our success. Consequently you may select any of the additional optional extras listed below. And you do not have to decide everything in advance – you can request additional support as and when you need it. The extra support options are:
1. Text Books - we are happy to recommend text books for each of our modules, and cost effective sourcing. Alternatively we can purchase books for you and arrange to have them delivered to you.
2. More time – if you need more time to complete your studies you can extend the period of your tutor support on a module by module basis.
3. More tutor support - if you want more tutor support for all or any of your modules you can upgrade at anytime to have additional one to one tutoring. We can arrange audio or video sessions with your tutor for any or all of your modules. You will only have to pay for the time you actually use.
4. Taught Sessions – if you are able to travel and decide during your studies that you would like to upgrade to attend a taught weekend you may do so for any or all of your modules.
