Best practice design

Like all our online courses, the Better Business Cases Foundation online course has been designed using the latest best practices in elearning.

Some competitors develop online learning cheaply by filming a trainer in a classroom. We don’t think that is a good way to help students learn, nor does it engage learners.

We are confident that our elearning will help you gain an understanding of Better Business Cases that you can sit your Foundation exam with confidence.

Benefits of elearning

Online self-paced learning is ideal for busy people. Using self-paced online learning rather than attending classroom training there are some key benefits:
