You will need

  • - certificate of secondary (secondary technical or secondary special) education;
  • - a certified copy of the passport;
  • - medical certificate in form 086/у;
  • - a certified copy of the compulsory medical insurance policy;
  • - 4 photos 3x4

Instructions

Think about whether you have the strength and ability to master the program of your choice in a shortened time. If yes, then first familiarize yourself with the list of professions for which training does not involve formal training, since it requires not only theoretical, but also serious practical training and constant communication with teachers. Find out if the destination you have chosen is on this list.

Contact a university that has state training for specialists and has the right to provide training in the form of external studies in accordance with the Academic Council. Universities that do not have state accreditation (no matter state educational institutions or non-state educational institutions) do not have the right to open this form of education.

Prepare and submit the necessary documents to the admissions committee of your chosen university. The university admissions committee may also require other documents (military ID, work record book, etc.).

After successfully passing the entrance examinations, fill out an application in the prescribed form addressed to the rector, in which you ask to transfer you to external studies. The university administration may refuse you if, for example, your certificate contains “satisfactory” grades, including in subjects other than your core, or postpone making a decision until the first session.

If the decision is positive, you will receive a student card and a record book, in which “Externship” will be indicated in the right corner on the 1st page, as well as a certification plan for the entire course of study. The deadlines are set by the university administration in agreement with the Department of Education and other universities providing training in related specialties, since intermediate certification of external students often takes place in different educational institutions.

You have the right to a three-hour free consultation with university teachers before each intermediate assessment. In addition to the theoretical part of the training, you will be able to gain practical knowledge, for which you will be provided with laboratory lesson plans and given directions for industrial and pre-graduate internships.

Pass all midterm exams and prepare to defend your thesis project. Usually it takes place in the same time frame as for graduates graduating from a university through full-time, part-time and evening courses. Based on the results of the final certification, you will receive a state-recognized diploma of higher professional education.

Studying is not an easy matter. Most students cannot finish university due to heavy workload and, as a result, laziness. Meanwhile, higher education is necessary. Graduating from an educational institution is not easy, but by following some tips and tricks you can overcome this difficulty.

Instructions

The education system of higher educational institutions is a little simpler than in. The key to successful study is hidden in. If a full-time student is required to attend classes. However, many students are truant. That is why they have quite a hard time during. The teacher looks at attendance. Some of them may only give credit for this.

Must have all lectures. Try to write every lecture.

Work in pairs. Prepare several seminars during the semester. If there is high attendance and there are grades for the work, the teacher can assign a grade automatically.

Try to get to know the teacher's teaching style right away. There are those who require all the material for the semester and impeccable knowledge of their subject. Students have a particularly difficult time with them. High attendance and steam work can save you here. Keep in mind that each teacher determines admission to the exam and test in his own way.

The most important moment in a student’s life is the session. There are usually two sessions per year, separated by semesters. During the session, students take exams, admission to which is ensured by passing all tests and coursework. It is with tests that more problems arise, since teachers are especially demanding of them. Exams are a little easier, but you shouldn’t relax. Try to pass the exam the first time and together with the group. Subsequently, the chances of passing drop sharply.

Writing coursework and laboratory papers is an obligatory part of the educational process. The best option here is to work independently. You will not always be able to protect work downloaded or made by another student. But if you study the material enough, the defense will go well.

After nine sessions you will have to take state exams. These are quite important undertakings, so take them seriously. At the end of the exams, you will begin writing and defending your thesis.

Video on the topic

Graduating from school is a very important stage in the life of every person. Everyone needs to cross this barrier. It will take a lot of strength and patience, intelligence and resourcefulness, knowledge and practical skills. But you have to finish school, regardless of whether you continue studying or go to work.

Instructions

The foundation for future successful completion of school is laid already in secondary school. If you don’t want to have problems in high school, you need to start working from an early age. If you study well from the very beginning, you will have a certain reputation by the end of your studies. Such students are often predicted to become medalists. Now, of course, a lot depends on successfully passing the Unified State Exam, but you must agree that if you study from the very beginning, much more knowledge will remain in your head, and passing such an exam will no longer be so difficult.

Passing the Unified State Exam itself does not represent answers to any specific questions, but a test form of tasks. In the Unified State Exam, however, there is a section where you need to write an essay. In any case, this is not an exam that you can prepare for in three days by finding answers to questions and pulling out one ticket in the exam. This requires complex knowledge, that is, you need to study for a long time, gradually mastering topic by topic. Therefore, in order to successfully complete the exam by passing the Unified State Exam, and thereby ensure admission to a university, you need to study diligently during the last two years - 10th and 11th grade.

Just to prepare yourself for this hard work, you need to develop the habit of working in yourself in primary and secondary school. It's not as difficult as it seems. Many mothers complain that school takes away all the health of their children, especially if the child studies well and a lot. However, you can rationalize your child’s work and make sure that homework takes as little time as possible. Then school will be easier, and the child will have more time to do normal children’s activities - hanging out with peers.

It's hard to take the bull by the horns when time has already passed, and you came to high school with a "rich" track record: delays in one grade for two years, C's and D's and marks for bad behavior. All that is required here is your will. But for the future, know: so that your children do not have problems finishing school, you need to instill a healthy attitude towards learning from childhood. Then they won't have the difficulties you faced.

The right university will help you become a specialist and find a good job. The department at MIP and MPEI makes it possible to remotely graduate from a Moscow university without moving to the capital.

Building a career wisely: how to choose a worthy university?

Who chooses the university instead of you?

How to overcome the difficulties of choice?

University rankings, which help Western applicants find their way around, are not yet widespread in our country. There are a lot of universities, too many promises, but the prospects are vague.

Distance higher education is a teaching method in which the teacher and student are located at a distance from each other. They are deprived of the opportunity to see each other in person, but can communicate and see each other via the Internet. Some higher education institutions offer applicants to obtain the necessary knowledge in this way, and people who want to study happily take advantage of this opportunity.

The advantages of distance higher education are obvious:

  • you can live in one city/country and study in another
  • you don't need to waste time on the road
  • you choose a time convenient for you to study

Universities for distance higher education

Almost every state university that offers distance education on the basis of higher education is provided with all the necessary material and technical base.

In 2012, the Russian Federation passed Law No. 273-FZ “Law on Education in the Russian Federation”, which legalized and streamlined distance higher education. This was a breakthrough in the field of education in Russia, although this type of education has been practiced in the world for a long time.

  • In 1969 The Open University (UK Open University) began conducting distance learning using two-way radio.

Today, universities have the opportunity to conduct online seminars and take exams without meeting students in person. Therefore, educational institutions can offer a wide list of specialties that can be studied remotely.

Of course, you will not be able to get a profession that requires certain practical skills. You cannot study remotely to become a doctor or technologist, but you can become a lawyer, economist, journalist, manager, get a diploma in psychology, logistics and ecology... Some of the most popular areas of distance education are:

  • management;
  • economy;
  • jurisprudence;
  • marketing;
  • finance and credit;
  • business Informatics;
  • digital design;
  • state and municipal administration;
  • automated information processing and management systems;
  • computer software and automated systems.

No matter what city you are in, you can study at any university in the country and abroad. You can find a complete list of universities of distance higher education on the website of the Unified Center for Higher Distance Education - ecvdo.ru or EduNetwork.ru.

How much does distance higher education cost?

Distance higher education is cheaper than full-time education both for the university itself and for students. The university does not pay for premises and utilities, students do not pay for travel, notebooks and other attributes.

The exact cost of education depends on the university and the level of qualifications you plan to obtain. The approximate cost of studying for a bachelor's degree varies from 30 to 60 thousand rubles per semester.

For example, at the UNIK Institute a semester (six-month) costs 48,000 rubles, training lasts 3.5-5 years depending on whether this is your first or second education.

Cost of distance education abroad ( specifically in European educational institutions) depends on the curriculum. The more items you choose, the more you pay. Load and cost consist of ECTS— modular credit system. The annual workload norm is 60 ECTS. For a bachelor's degree you need to score 180-240 ECTS, that is, 3-4 years of study, and for a master's degree 300 ECTS. In different universities, one ECTS costs differently, from 30 to 100 euros.

Another criterion is the popularity of the university.

Elite schools usually inflate their prices. For example, at the prestigious UK university Open University, the cost of ECTS is 42 euros, that is, you will need to pay per year 2500-3500 euros depending on specialization.

In Spanish Universidad a Distancia de Madrid The cost of ECTS is 73 euros, which means you will need to pay approximately 4380 euros per year.

The most expensive countries for studying are America, England, Germany, France and Canada. But the level of education there is significantly higher than that of other countries. Many foreign universities offer students to reduce tuition costs in case of high academic performance and personal achievements - this way they motivate students to study better.

How is the training going?

  • If you want to pursue higher education remotely, you must have high-speed Internet and a webcam.

On the website of your university you will have your own personal account, where you can see the class schedule, your homework, contacts of teachers, and you can download past lecture recordings. For each lesson you will be sent a link to an online conference, which can be held through the service Cisco WebEx or Adobe. If you were not present at the lecture, you can watch it at a convenient time in the recording. The only difference will be that during the lecture you can immediately ask questions to the teacher in a group chat.

Distance learning lasts the same amount of time as regular learning. If you get a second higher education, the time is significantly reduced (up to 1-3 years). After each session you go on vacation, but some universities give you the opportunity to skip this time and start the next course.

How to enter a university for distance higher education

Before you begin your studies, you must go through the admission procedure. Keep in mind that some institutions accept students year-round, while others accept students at certain times once a year. Detailed information can be found on the website of the university of your choice. But there are several rules that are the same for all universities and institutes. So, how to enroll in a university for distance learning?

First, you need to provide the admissions committee with a certain package of documents. After registering on the university website, you can submit an application for admission. After this, the manager will contact you and provide a list of required documents as well as the address where they need to be sent.

Required documents:

  • A copy of the first page of the passport, a copy of the page indicating registration (certified copy by a notary);
  • 4 photographs in 3x4 format;
  • The original certificate or a notarized copy of the document on previous education: a diploma of secondary vocational education or a diploma of higher education with attachments;
  • certificate of results of the Unified State Exam (USE);
  • application with your signature.

You can download all application forms and questionnaires on the official website of the university. School graduates may need to pass an entrance test, and those wishing to obtain a second higher education may need to pass an interview. After enrollment as a student, you will receive an email containing a training agreement and a payment receipt for the first semester. You sign an agreement, pay for the semester and send documents to the university. The admissions committee issues an enrollment order, and you get access to classes.

Distance education of the UNIK Institute

Here we can talk about receiving distance education using the example of a real student who shared his experience with us.

As we have already said, the obvious advantage of DO is that you can live not only in another city, but also in another country. Gleb lives in Moldova, but is studying to become a designer (digital design) at the Moscow UNIK Institute remotely. All documents for admission were sent by regular mail to the Moscow address of the university.

Evgeniy studies the basics of design, academic drawing, and almost all Adobe family programs. Gleb told us about the most important advantages for him -

“Among the teachers there are only active professionals, that is, designers, directors of companies and studios, those who earn money not only by teaching, but also by design. The teachers are young, from 25 to 40 years old, active and lively people who tell only relevant information, what you need to know today.”

The institute's training programs cover the full range of knowledge needed by a future specialist. Education through distance learning programs is equivalent to full-time education at regular universities. The Institute offers education in the following popular specialties:

  1. Journalism. During the course, you communicate with experienced representatives of the profession; after completion, each student is provided with assistance in finding a job. The course will teach you to inspire trust in people and correctly analyze information and events. Duration of training – from 4.5 to 3.5 years. Cost – 40,000 rubles for six months.
  2. Psychology. Serious but interesting program. The best teachers, lectures, seminars and master classes with the participation of famous psychologists. At this faculty you will receive the necessary theoretical knowledge and practical skills. Duration of training – from 3.5 to 5 years. Cost – 29,500 rubles for six months.
  3. Design. Faculty for creative people, future graphic designers and interior designers. Developing a portfolio, training practical skills. Duration of training – from 4.5 to 5 years. Cost – 48,000 rubles for six months.
  4. Foreign languages. Training is conducted in two profiles: translation and foreign language in business. Faculty specialists are in demand on the labor market. The duration of training is from 3.5 to 4.5 years. Cost – 48,000 rubles for six months.

Graduates of the institute work in various fields - from advertising agencies and media to the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation. After training you will receive a state diploma. To enroll in the institute, just leave an application on the official website. Admissions specialists will call you and send you a detailed training plan. Institute staff will help prepare the necessary documents, accept the introductory task and enroll you in the course.

Distance education abroad

If you choose to study abroad, first prepare the necessary documents. This is a certificate of complete secondary education, all necessary applications, letters of recommendation. All submitted documents will most likely have to be translated into a foreign language. When applying for a second higher education or master's degree, in addition to the standard package of documents, you must provide a diploma of higher education.

When applying to some English-speaking universities, you will have to take a language proficiency test, after which you will receive an international certificate TOEFL. If you want to enroll in a German university, you will need to pass TestDaF or DSH. Sometimes you have to take additional tests. For example, in order to become a student at the National University in the USA, you will need to pass tests in arithmetic and psychology.

The operating principle of foreign universities is similar to the operating principle of Russian ones. You register on the website of the educational institution, where you study lectures, take tests, take part in seminars, communicate with fellow students, and submit completed work.

Distance higher education is an excellent opportunity to gain a profession without attending lectures and seminars and without being distracted from work and other everyday activities.

Distance education allows you to communicate with a student at a distance: provide him with the necessary literature, communicate with him and control his knowledge. All this makes the learning process easier, faster and more effective.

Currently, young people are striving for more convenient living conditions that the Internet provides. Virtual stores, online consultations with doctors and even distance higher education! Reviews from students and graduates, advantages and disadvantages, wishes and warnings - all this is collected in this article.

The fact is that there are many who want to study without leaving home, but every such person has fears and doubts. Let's figure out what distance learning is, what pitfalls and advantages it has. The information is based on various sources, which contain real reviews, discussions of students and experienced students.

What is distance education

First, let’s get acquainted with the concept of “distance higher education,” since many of you probably just want to know what it is. Imagine a student who was told: “Don’t come to the university, I will provide all lectures and assignments, as well as a list of references, by email.” Probably, modern full-time students, as well as evening and part-time students, have at least once encountered such a situation when the teacher could not be present in person, but gave homework through the computer.

Distance education in this case occurs at a distance constantly. Often students come only for state exams and diploma defense. The rest of the time you need to study either at home (at a short distance from the educational institution), or at another point in the world.

How do teachers and students communicate?

Distance learning occurs in the following ways:

  1. The teacher sends the student a list of literature, a plan and series of lectures, as well as assignments by email.
  2. The university sets up a personal account on the website for the student and gives him a login and password to log in. On the internal server, the student must download all provided material.
  3. The lecturer provides a link to notes and a list of references.
  4. Training takes place online, that is, webinars are created.

It’s worth talking about the last way of interaction between teacher and student, since not everyone knows what a webinar is. Surely many of you communicated on Skype, in instant messengers using a microphone and a webcam. In this case, you can both see each other, talk, and write off letters. This is what a webinar looks like. The only differences are that:

  • the teacher does not see or hear a single student, but he can observe who has arrived for training (usually a list of participants is displayed on the right), and also, if he wants to get an answer from the students to his question, then he can read the answers from everyone in general chat;
  • You can only arrive at the webinar at the strictly designated time.

This is what distance higher education might look like. Universities should strive to ensure that the servers work uninterruptedly and have advanced functions for students, for example, the ability to check coursework for uniqueness, download a form of title pages, send the work to the teacher through a special form, see your grades, ratings, and so on.

Are universities real?

You can sometimes hear questions on the Internet on forums and communities: are universities real or are they virtual? Remember: there are no virtual institutes! Paperwork, tuition fees, admission - all this must exist in reality, that is, the university/academy must truly exist.

Often, reviews of higher education remotely are quite critical in terms of the fact that the money was paid for the studies, but the diploma was not issued. And it is impossible to understand whether the university is real or just some unaccredited center. Therefore, dear friends, if you are determined to study remotely, but the educational institution is unfamiliar to you, then first visit it.

One-stop center

There are unified centers for distance education (abbreviated as EDDC). Reviews about them vary. But most often they are negative. The fact is that when signing an agreement, many people are lazy or embarrassed to read absolutely everything. In addition, there may be questionable items, in which case people often take it for granted. Therefore, it is advisable to get acquainted with a single center or university in person, ask students (if possible), try to find graduates to ask whether they managed to successfully obtain an education and a diploma.

In addition, the single center may turn out to be fake, that is, the owner of the site has nothing to do with real universities. Therefore, you should study the information carefully.

And most importantly, in order to get a truly honest and worthy education, it is recommended to visit the admissions office of the university that interests you. It's better if it's accredited

Who is it suitable for?

People most often interested in this type of training are:

  • employed in production;
  • mothers on maternity leave;
  • disabled people;
  • compatriots living in other countries;
  • rural youth without the opportunity to regularly go to sessions, as well as those who do not want to live in a hostel and in rented apartments;
  • the poor.

For those who cannot even attend distance learning, distance learning will be available. In this case, higher education is considered full-fledged, as in the case of correspondence education.

How to submit documents

On the Internet you can often find a tempting offer, for example: “You don’t need to come with documents! You can submit a request here. We contact you, clarify all the details, and you enter the university.” Don't fall for these scammers' tricks! Similar methods of “entry” can be offered by unified centers of higher distance education, reviews of which can only be found negative.

You should not assume that not a single UTDC works honestly. Actually this is not true. Indeed, most often it is suggested to leave your full name. and contact details on the application form. But all necessary documents must be brought to the university in person. In this case, the following documents (copies) must be present:

  • passport (person and registration) or birth certificate (if under 18 years of age);
  • document on previous education, including an insert with grades;
  • photo 3x4 cm;
  • certificate of change of surname (if it differs in the diploma and in the passport).

Remember that not a single real and serious university will accept documents remotely!

Reviews from students and graduates

Now let's talk about distance higher education in state universities. Reviews from real students and graduates are mixed. Everyone sees both the pros and cons in their own way. Some people like that the teacher gives assignments by email, while others like to ask questions about the topic of study, and there are a lot of them, but they cannot get an answer right away.

As for getting an education as such, each student expects something different: some just need a diploma, while others want to seriously study and become a competent specialist. Often expectations are not met, so let's look at all the nuances in detail below.

Advantages of distance education

Among the happy students who enrolled in distance learning, you can find positive reviews. Let's take a look at them:

  • no need to travel to lectures and sessions, waste time and money;
  • You can study in your free time from other activities;
  • no need to receive unnecessary and off-topic information from the lecturer;
  • you can gain much more knowledge than through full-time and evening studies;
  • The training period is much shorter; you can become a specialist in 2-3 years.

As you can see, getting higher education remotely is a profitable business.

Disadvantages of distance learning

Despite such excellent advantages, one should also take into account the disadvantages, which can significantly affect further postgraduate activities:

  • no laboratory or practical classes;
  • teachers can answer questions using the Internet for a very long time (given their busy schedules and the large number of distance students);
  • you have to train your willpower to take up your studies;
  • there is no opportunity to communicate with classmates to analyze the material together.

Distance higher education only requires the presence of a computer or laptop, as well as uninterrupted Internet. If difficulties arise while completing tasks, you will have to act independently or ask for help from those who know the discipline (subject) well.

Therefore, almost all students and graduates of this form of education are strongly recommended to take their studies seriously, since tests, exams and diploma defense will be carried out in the same way as in full-time, evening and correspondence courses. You should not expect concessions and concessions from the examiners and the commission.

Second or first higher

Increasingly, people are striving to obtain more than one higher education. So, many once in their youth entered the wrong specialty, but the time to study was lost, or there was no desire to sit at the same desk with the younger generation. At the moment, there is a chance to catch up and get a second higher education remotely. Universities do not reject applications from those who already have a higher education. On the contrary, there are even those who receive it for the third or even fourth or fifth time.

As for the first higher education, you can choose distance learning if a person has at least secondary specialized education and also works in a field that is close to the specialty in which he wants to study.

Retraining online

Those who already have specialized secondary or higher education do not necessarily have to go to college or university and study for five to six years in order to gain new knowledge with the right to work in their specialty.

Retraining on the basis of higher education remotely is the dream of everyone who wants to change their profession to one they like. In addition, it is absolutely not necessary to spend money and time on acquiring new knowledge. Distance learning lasts no more than one year in total, and the number of teaching hours is about 700-900.

About universities

Above, we discussed possible fraud on the part of sites calling themselves single centers for distance learning. In addition, there are universities that also accept documents on their official website and send receipts for payment for the semester or year. Unfortunately, many students were left without diplomas due to the fact that the university is not accredited. There is another disadvantage: they can issue certificates, but they will not be of state standard.

To avoid getting into such trouble, you need to check the accreditation number, see whether it is a state university or not, and then accurately determine your higher education remotely. Student reviews online can be either real or false. Therefore, you should seriously approach the choice yourself or with the help of people experienced in this matter.

Is it difficult or easy to study (student opinions)

First of all, you need to understand that no one will force you to complete tasks on time. The student must manage his own time, and questions may arise when solving problems or completing coursework. This often applies to technical and economic specialties. Therefore, distance learning in engineering professions is suitable for those who already have a first higher education degree.

It is easy to study at a distance, usually in the humanities, such as law, sociology, and political science. Just to avoid mistakes, you should choose higher education remotely at a state university.

In general, if you take your studies responsibly, then nothing will be difficult.

Cost of education

Many people think that the cost of distance education is much lower than that of correspondence education, but this is not the case everywhere. In this case, the student saves money on travel and accommodation (if the university is far from their place of residence).

In addition, the cost depends on the following factors:

  • geographical location of the university;
  • volume of hours and duration of training;
  • specialties;
  • assigned qualifications.

There is a significant advantage here: a person who lives in a big city and does not have a lot of money to enroll in a prestigious specialty can choose a university for distance learning in another city. However, he must come there only to submit documents and defend/receive a diploma.

To act or not? General conclusions

Perhaps after reading the article you will have a dilemma: is it worth getting a higher education remotely? Not everyone has positive reviews. In fact, a lot depends on the students themselves. Let’s say, if your first specialty is in the humanities, and now you want to become a civil engineer, then it’s better to abandon the idea. Remember studying mathematics, physics and chemistry at school: without the help of a teacher it is almost impossible to understand how to solve certain problems. Often you have to ask again many times until it becomes clear. Same with engineering sciences. Therefore, technical specialties are suitable for those who are already intimately familiar with many of the disciplines that need to be studied. On the contrary, after an engineering specialty, you can without a doubt enroll in the humanities.

And in conclusion, we will again touch on the topic of a single center for higher distance education. Student reviews show that it is better to submit documents only in person to the chosen university, and not via the Internet. This way you will protect yourself from fraud. We wish you good luck in choosing distance learning!

High competition in the labor market forces young people and adults to look for / change ways of their professional development.

Benefits of Higher Education
