Learn moreStudy your way with asynchronous learning
Asynchronous learning is on-demand education that is free from real-time timetables, schedules, or limitations, so you can study your degree at IU at your own pace, when it suits you best, your way. That means asynchronous learning is much more flexible than synchronous classes, which may be available online or in-person, but require you to follow a fixed schedule.
Not sure if asynchronous learning is right for you? Consult our guide which covers the advantages and disadvantages of online classes.
Upgrade your studies with our Intensive Live Sessions
Each course you take offers monthly live sessions with your tutor and fellow students. As a rule, the sessions are 120 minutes long (though variations are possible depending on course contents), and cover all the course materials. It’s a great chance for you to check your progress, ask any questions, and meet other students from your programme.
To make sure the sessions fit your schedule, no matter what, they’ll always be recorded – so you can access them whenever you want, even if you’re not able to attend.
Each monthly session covers the same material, so you only need to watch or attend it once. But you can of course do it more often: the choice is all yours.
