Delivery
The delivery of modules and tailored short courses may vary ( face-to-face teaching , block attendance or online learning ). Some courses are also described as ‘ blended ’, featuring face-to-face sessions at the beginning of the course followed by paper or web-based learning materials .
Associate students
If you opt to study for a single module or decide to complete a named short course , you will be matriculated as an associate student . As an associate student you will have the same access to all of QMU ’ s student learning and information technology services as all other students , as well as support from the course co-ordinators and lecturers . This means that for nurses and allied health professionals , for example , you can meet your professional requirements for maintaining your competence as a registered practitioner when studying .
You can study a maximum of two modules as an associate student . If you complete a module or CPD course and then decide that you would like to continue towards a postgraduate qualification , the credit you have gained as an associate student may count towards a named qualification . This will depend on the CPD module / course you have undertaken and the nature of the award you wish to pursue .
