What does it mean to study by flexible delivery?

Flexible delivery learning at James Cook University offers students off-campus access to some higher education courses through a combination of self-instructional materials and, in some cases, on-campus workshops

Courses for students who study off campus are delivered in the following modes:

• External – subjects require no on-campus attendance for classes. Flexible delivery may incorporate the delivery of teaching material wholly or in part via the Internet, print material or CD Rom.

• Limited attendance – subjects require some on-campus attendance for classes. Flexible delivery may incorporate the delivery of teaching material wholly or in part via the Internet, print material or CD Rom. Practicum subjects are sometimes recorded as limited attendance subjects.
