Comprehensive Student Support

EBS offers a full support network for distance education students. You have online access to:

• The full resources of Heriot-Watt University's library
• Faculty members and peers (through forums)
• Self-assessment exercises
• Administrative staff

EBS's self-study experience is comprehensive - you are provided with everything you need to prepare for your exams.

Affordable Study

EBS courses can be more affordable than other major postgraduate courses, including other distance education offerings. This is especially true for Permanent Residents and others not eligible for government FEE-HELP.

There are fewer modules to be completed, and you enrol in and pay for your course on a module-by-module basis - no upfront fees are required.

SEEK Learning also offers financing options to assist you with your payment. Contact a SEEK Learning consultant now for more information.
