How to study ABE by Distance Learning

Studying for any of the ABE qualifications through MCG is easy. MCG offers a unique, flexible concept of Distance Learning with web support, which means that you can study anywhere, at any time convenient to you. You don’t have to take time off work and you can control and fit your studies around family commitments. Classes are never cancelled because you control when you want to study.

For each subject, students will receive the following standard support package.

Study manuals written by ABE.  

Each study manual covers the syllabus in a logical sequence to exactly the right depth.  The manuals offer complete coverage of each subject for the Certificate, Diploma or Advanced Diploma levels.  They are useful for students following the ABE programme by private study and should be used in conjunction with the subject syllabuses and questions and answers for past papers. 

You may opt to buy the study material and study on your own. Please ---Click here--- to visit the ABE Bookshop. (new window)

Personal Mentor support.  

Experienced practitioners are on hand at all times to answer any questions you may have about the topics covered in the study material. If you have any problems with specific aspects of the course or the study material is not clear, you can ask the mentor in your own words for an explanation. Mentors can be contacted through email and will respond promptly. As they are qualified practitioners rather than lecturers, they will support you with answers drawn from their considerable work experience.      

This combination of study material and support provides a flexible balanced approach, and allows you to learn in the way which suits you best.    

MCG strive to supply study material within ten days, however this process may occasionally take 3 or 4 weeks to complete, after standard support fees have been paid.
