Multimedia Distance Learning
Multiplin is currently developing a range of materials for multimedia distance learning (MDL) courses for Cranefield College. Registration for the first two international MDL courses opened towards the end of 2007, and there are now many students who are benefiting from this convenient and efficient learning method. All existing and prospective courses are international MDL courses, which are accordingly available to anyone with basic Internet and email access (and the facility for DVD playback). For further information about the existing MDL courses, please visit Cranefield College.

The MDL approach allows the student to benefit from a variety of media, with minimal setup requirements. The student is provided with a variety of teaching materials, including DVDs. MDL courses are designed to give the student maximum flexibility in choosing when, where and how he or she wishes to learn. The assessment system for MDL courses will also allow a student to submit examination assignments electronically (where relevant), within a flexible period of time.

The MDL courses currently available are Project Management: Perspective, Planning and Implementation (MDL Short Course: around 3-4 months), Essential Project Management (MDL Fast-track course: 3 weeks), Professional English Skills (MDL Short Course: around 3 months), Essential Professional English (MDL Fast-track course: 3 weeks), and Advanced Writing Skills (MDL Short Course: around 3 months). Looking further towards the future, a number of integrative continuing professional development (CPD) programmes in Law and Management, Law and Psychology, and Law and Medicine, are set to be launched in 2012.
