Full Online Qualifications
Study with SACAP Online
Studying online is a good choice if you are a motivated and independent learner who can self-pace through resources and activities while balancing other life commitments.
Studying with SACAP online, in particular, is an active and engaging experience that gives you the flexibility to meet your weekly course requirements at a place and pace that suits you best.
Your educators release the learning materials on a Monday morning and you have the full 7 days to complete the tasks. From time to time, your educator may choose to schedule Live webinars with advanced notice.
Just as in real life, we deliberately keep our online class sizes small. This means you get to know your peers, your educators and your work really well. What’s more, our online support team makes sure that students never feel lost or alone.
