Online / distance education courses in Australia

Lifestyle Learning Direct:
Based in Molendinar in Queensland, Lifestyle Learning Direct began life in Australia as The Writing School, which had originally begun in the UK and branched out into Australia, New Zealand and Singapore in 1984. Since this time, the reputation of our school has grown, due both to our large numbers of satisfied (and successful) students, plus our commitment to providing further specialist writing courses to satisfy student demand. Within the last decade, the owners of the school, utilising their experience in the field of distance learning, decided to offer a wider variety of courses. Today we offer a variety of Distance Learning programmes including editing and proof reading, interior design, fashion design, beauty therapy and garden design to improve your education. We are a fully accredited college.

With online training you have the advantage of being able to study anywhere that you have access to a computer and the internet. All of the lessons are available on the website for you to view as you need them, or you can save them to your computer and print them and take them with you where ever you go.

At the end of most lessons is an online quiz so that you can test your knowledge straight away. Many of the courses also have self-assessment activities throughout the lesson so you can track your progress.

Once you are comfortable that you understand everything contained in the lesson, simply complete your assessment and upload it to the website for your tutor to mark. Once your tutor has marked your assessment you will receive an email notifying you that your marked assessment is ready for collection for the website

It is so easy - you don't even have to leave your home!  Online courses have a 12 month time-limit in which to complete.
