Distance Education – Open Access College

What is Distance Education?

Learning by distance at the Open Access College occurs in a variety of ways. We have developed and use a range of teaching and learning methods, including:

• Telephone or online lessons in small groups
• Specialised course booklets
• Custom designed support materials including DVDs, CDs and activity kits
• Face-to-face workshops, mini schools, camps and excursions
• Visits from teachers

Communication between students and teachers is via post, email, phone or fax.

The Open Access College Campuses

The Open Access College has a campus at Port Augusta and another at Marden in Adelaide.

The Open Access College caters for students unable to either attend a local school or access curriculum in their own school. The Port Augusta campus caters for reception to year 7 and the Marden campus for reception to year 12 students.
