Have you one evening free per week? Are you interested in pursuing an area of study for your own personal motivation and development? The Centre for Adult Learning and Professional Development at the University of Galway launched its Short Courses Series 2024. Commencing the week of February 12th, courses are eight-weeks in duration (online or classroom-based ) and cost €145 each.
Read everything you receive. Read the course guide. This should be accessible through the online platform. Make sure you know what is expected of you before you start the course. Will there be many assessments, find out what format will they take, will you have end-of-term examinations or will you be assessed in other ways?
Take note of fixed lecture and tutorial times. Set aside time for study and research. Make use of your course calendar, take note of key dates and integrate them with your own personal calendar. Set time aside for assignments and projects and participate in the virtual classroom if and when required.
