The MOOC
begins and ends with an online session, with self-study in between.

After the course, you’ll have another two weeks to ask the instructor questions. Since the instructor is already teaching other courses, it’s best to email your questions to info@geo-ict.nl. Your question will be forwarded to the instructor, and you’ll receive a response within 24 hours.

If you’re a bit further along and encounter practical problems you can’t solve on your own, it’s best to use Online Support. You’ll spend one day online with the instructor and receive personalized one-on-one instruction. All your problems will be resolved, and you’ll have made significant progress.

• Blended learning, also known as hybrid learning, is an educational method that combines traditional face-to-face classes with online learning materials and interactive sessions. This approach offers students flexibility and control over aspects such as the time, place, and pace of learning, while allowing them to benefit from direct interaction with instructors and fellow students. ​
• At the Geo-ICT Training Center in the Netherlands, blended learning is implemented by having students study largely independently, supplemented by scheduled interactive sessions with an instructor. During these sessions, students can ask questions and discuss complex topics, which fosters a deeper understanding of the course material. All Blended Learning courses begin with a 2-hour online session. The instructor delivers presentations and assigns various exercises and assignments to the student. The student can then work on these independently. After a few weeks, another one-hour online session follows.

If you run into problems in practice that you can’t solve on your own, you have two options: you can sign up for a beginner or advanced course, or you can sign up for Online Support.
