4. Calvary Academics © 20154 1. e-Learning The electronic edge

5. Calvary Academics © 20155 Maintaining Quality Students must stay in tutor-contact whilst learning. Each student has a computer or tablet to the same platform. The e-solution provided on the web-site must be used to allow the student to get the benefit of resource material (All students make use of e-learning material, some provided on DVD or stick) We believe in contact training but not all teachers can offer the same standards of education – so we have developed a distance e-learning assisted solution:

The technology element is brought in to improve the e-learning experience.
