A New Learning Environment

New Ways

We’re excited to present a new way of teaching and learning that will combine the strengths of the old and new, and will ensure that when our graduates step out of AUCA into a new world, they will be ready for it.

Learning Anytime Anywhere

Online learning has taken giant leaps forward – the use of multimedia, open resources, and new technologies allow for greater student choice and control, anytime/anywhere learning, and better access to the universe of knowledge that waits at our fingertips.

Power of Online

At AUCA, we’ll use online learning where it works best — for lectures, workshops, and interactive coding groups. But where meeting face-to-face is more valuable — for example for practical learning, one-to-ones, and small group teaching — we will always endeavour to make it happen.

Best of Online and Face-to-Face

Our physical site will be an important hub for our students to learn and socialise together. We don’t know what the world will bring us post COVID-19, or what restrictions will still be in place; but we’re committed to giving our students an excellent and safe educational experience that brings together the best of online and face-to-face teaching and learning.

Providing Transformational Learning Experience

Shaped By What We've Learned From COVID-19

Providing transformational learning experience shaped by what we've learned from COVID-19

It remains a possibility that the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic will continue into 2022 and impact on our ability to deliver face-to-face tuition. The beauty of AUCA being a new institution is that we are able to develop our academic programmes and broader student proposition to be delivered remotely when required or in person if permitted.

What does this mean in practice?

We’ll always follow government guidelines.
We’ll deliver meaningful face-to-face teaching wherever it can be conducted safely within these guidelines.
Our social, wellbeing and, careers offering will be delivered face-to-face wherever possible, with excellent online contingencies in place.
If a student is ill or shielding, they won’t miss out on any aspect of the student experience - there will always be an online option.
We’ll ensure we communicate with our students in a clear, transparent, and timely way if/when government guidance changes while they are studying.
We’ll make sure our students are kept up to date on any changes to our provision, the availability of our facilities, and what’s expected of them.
