But unsure if the exams are online as well though? I can't exactly nick out of the office to go do an exam
Mid term exams (if applicable) - maybe.
Final exams - unlikely (you'll be in a packed room with the rest of the sardines).
I already looked at Open Uni as an option, but they don't have the course I want. Not sure if they take suggestions on courses?
In a later post you mention doing a course in property finance.
OUA does offer a BBus in Fin Planning (not the same, I know).
Also, UNE (another noted distance education provider) has a
Bachelor of Business with majors in:
Agribusiness
Applied Finance
Business Economics
Decision Support Tools for Business
Financial Management
Human Resource Management
Information Systems
International Business
Management
Marketing
Professional Accounting
Sustainability
They (UNE) also have a
Bachelor of Financial Services.
UNE now teaches across three semesters pa. And, if you choose your units wisely, you'll likely never have to set foot in Armidale, NSW (though it is a pretty city).
All that being said... imo... irrespective of where you study and what you do, you should try and use some of your earlier study in IT as advanced standing... if you don't ask, you don't get ....and even if it is outside of the usual 10 year timeframe for AS, if there are no "currency of knowledge" issues because you've spent the last 10 years working in IT, you should be fine..
How feasible is it to study whilst working full time?
Has anyone here done so? How have you found it? Any tips?
Time management.
Devise and stick to a study timetable.
Stay up to date with the work and the readings.
If it is online based (usually is now with distance) then be an active participant
Don't be afraid to ask for help (lecturers are there to help)
Don't bite off more than you can chew....
Or... if you do, be mindful of the withdrawal dates (for fees, etc) and pull the pin before you get pinged financially or you are deemed to have failed the unit if you withdraw.
