We are a Partner College of Plymouth University and the University is the awarding body for all of our degree qualifications. By studying your distance e-learning degree with us, when you graduate you will receive a full degree or Master’s award from Plymouth University exactly the same as if you had attended a full time on a campus degree course.
e-Learning: How it Works
Students are able to study from anywhere in the world using MLA's accessible e-learning platforms. See here how our teaching and learning materials are delivered. For those working at sea for long periods of time, regular internet access is not required and our cutting-edge teaching and learning materials can all be accessed without a continuous connection to the World Wide Web.
