Postgraduate Diploma in Health Science (Level 8)

Summary

Online / Blended Delivery

Our postgraduate courses are offered either online or with blended delivery. This means that the majority of the work is located on a virtual teaching and learning platform with directed activities and learning that you work through. Lecturers work within the virtual classroom setting so that they maintain contact with you.

Blended delivery means that there are contact sessions or workshops with the bulk of the learning activity undertaken in the online environment. Various teaching modes are used, such as virtual classroom discussions at predetermined times, and also in the asynchronous format. This flexible delivery method allows you to study at your pace, in your place, at locations throughout New Zealand. Workload Generally the courses are delivered online. However, some courses may require attendance at online sessions or face-to-face workshops. Any requirement for attendance at face-to-face sessions is identified in the course information.

You are expected to spend time in independent/self-directed study, critical reflection, and field work in your place of study or place of work.
