Advantages of free distance learning courses from USP
Distance learning is a modality that has been gaining prominence in Brazil in recent years. Every year, thousands of new courses are recognized by the MEC and enrollments in distance education courses already exceed one million, according to the latest Higher Education Census.
Due to the EAD courses, people who previously could not attend a university in person can obtain their higher education diploma recognized by the MEC. Among the benefits is convenience, because, with distance learning, it is the student who chooses when and where to study.
The fact that you don't have to go to college every day is a big advantage of distance learning. In distance learning courses, tuition fees are usually more affordable than those for face-to-face courses. In addition, the student spends less on travel, food and even materials.
