ASU Open Education Resource Helps Master Advanced Training Programmes

A special online resource, supporting the training in additional educational programmes that are implemented at university online, has been successfully run by Astrakhan State University for five years.

The resource offers study materials for more than 100 programmes of advanced training and professional retraining which help attendees master the curriculum successfully and gain necessary knowledge and practical skills.

The online resource contains study materials, lectures, assessment tools, practical tasks and a lot more. The published information favours more comfortable, efficient and comprehensive studies in additional educational programmes. The website allows to prepare for classes in a convenient way, to analyze notes, study guides and videos before working with a certain section or topic, which makes the process of gaining new knowledge way easier. One can return to the learnt material anytime to revise and work on it more thoroughly.

The resource enables interaction between professors and students. Tutors deliver lectures online, while webinars — using TrueConf platform; their recordings are also uploaded to the website. Besides, professors provide full information support for the whole study process and hold consultative meetings for everyone who has some difficulties with learning a certain subject online.
