Do you need all three elements?
One learning style does not fit all. The program caters for three different delivery modes:
- Classroom, video based content with a focus on collaborative learning 🎬
- Online, video-based content for independent student completion 💻
- Hard-copy, reading and writing based completion. Collaboration optional 📙
Each option allows for full program completion, without requiring need of another. Many of our schools opt to use a blend of all three... Teaching part of the course in-classroom, assigning part of the program for independent completion, and providing the textbook as an engaging classroom support tool, or for students who benefit from a hands-on learning modality.

My students commented on how relevant they found all this new found information and how grateful they are for it ahead of getting jobs hopefully this coming summer. Considering it one of the best resources offered to them in PEX this year”
