What our degree courses could do for you
Obviously, a degree is evidence of the standard you’ve achieved in the particular subject you’re studying. But there’s more to it than that. Whatever subject you study, having a degree demonstrates that you can organise your thoughts and express yourself at a very high level.
Plus, recent studies have identified the key attributes sought by employers when recruiting graduates. These include many interpersonal and self-management skills, often ranking above academic merit.
Choosing to study a degree by distance learning demonstrates to employers that you not only have the necessary knowledge, skills and understanding, but also that you can manage time effectively, are self-motivated and already have a good work ethic – qualities that will make you stand out from the crowd.
Why home learning makes so much sense
When you study with ICS, you enjoy all the benefits of our flexible learning techniques. Not only can you learn anywhere you like, you also have the freedom to study when it suits you: so for example, if you have family or work commitments, studying in the evening may work best for you. And this is one of the most cost-effective ways to study for a degree.
With ICS, studying at home doesn’t mean studying alone. You’ll have a dedicated mentor, who can help you plan your studies and keep you on track. You’ll also have the attention of a specific subject tutor for each module you study.
As an ICS student, you also have automatic access to our online student community giving you access to help and support from your fellow students.
