Framework for Flexible Learning

Flexible learning is an educational approach that employs pedagogically informed technologies to create personalised, engaging learning experiences, allowing students to choose how, what, when, and where they learn. Recognising that students’ needs, aspirations and commitments can evolve throughout their course, flexible learning ensures an engaging, personalised experience, supporting all students in reaching their potential.

Flexible learning requires partnership between all stakeholders: educators, institutions, students and employers, therefore the framework is intended to be accessible to a wide audience. It may be particularly useful for:

• Decision makers
• Course leaders
• Students
• Employers

The framework is part of the Essential Frameworks for Enhancing Student Success series.

Does your institution need support to develop your flexible learning approach? 

Institutions that adopt a flexible learning approach are responding to the diverse needs of learners and their employers; this can positively impact recruitment, retention and progression and widen participation, and support the upskilling and reskilling of the workforce. We work with you – understanding your context – to enhance your ways of working and learning.
