One of the main benefits of distance learning is that it eliminates geographical barriers. After all, students do not need to physically travel to the educational institution.
Consequently, this is particularly advantageous for those who live in remote areas or who face mobility difficulties.
Furthermore, factors such as flexible scheduling, saving time and money and personalizing learning are also very impactful. However, not all higher education courses can be offered in these models.
