Blended vs. In Person Classes

  • In-person: For those who prefer a traditional classroom setting, in-person classes include lectures and skills sessions with other students. 

  • Blended: A combination of online and in-person learning, blended courses allow students to complete part of the course online and then participate in a hands-on session.

  • Flexibility: Blended learning allows students to learn at their own pace, which can be beneficial for those with busy schedules. 

  • Self-paced learning: Blended courses allow students to review materials as many times as needed. 

  • Hands-on learning: In-person learning provides direct, hands-on learning opportunities. 

  • Distractions: In-person students may be less distracted and more disciplined than online students. 

  • Accessibility: Blended learning can reach students with different learning styles and in different environments.
