Distance Learning
LINGOs has two approaches to distance learning. These courses are designed to meet the needs of people, who want to learn more about project management but are unable to participate in face to face training.
The first is PMD Pro Flex - an online, mobile-ready facilitated, socially-engaging course where you learn PMD Pro 1 at your own pace while also learning from others.
This course is broadly self-paced. Each group lasts from 8-12 weeks depending on how quickly you go through the material. You will have the opportunity to watch videos, complete e-learning modules, complete structured readings, submit examples of your work and participate in discussions. The more you do, the more points you get and this will allow to progress more quickly through the levels. You will be able to interact with other particpants and your facilitator and by the end of the course, you will be prepared to take the PMD Pro certification. Certification is not mandatory and the course fee does not include the certification exam fee).

Difference between PMD Pro Flex and PMD Pro Online Live
PMD Pro Online Live is based round webinars held in real time. This gives you an opportunity to ask questions to your facilitator 'live'. You will also be interacting online in real time with other participants. PMD Pro Flex is not live. You can complete the tasks at any time. This gives you lots of flexibility - especially as everything is mobile ready - and you can ask questions to the facilitator - but not in real time. You will post a question and the facilitator will answer as soon as they can. In addition, the Online Live option is more intensive as runs over 4 weeks, whereas PMD Pro Flex takes from 8 to 12 weeks.
