A Message from Managing Director Michael Stewart

At the Interactive Design Institute we have no doubt that Online Education has become the most effective method of delivering educational programmes to those previously excluded for reasons of geographical location, family or personal circumstances, or restrictions imposed by employment. However, we also believe that Online Education has become the educational medium of choice for the discerning student, the student who wishes to determine how, where and when they study, who believes education should be readily available as an easily accessible, highly flexible, user friendly and affordable means to an end.

Our students can expect high quality, fully accredited learning materials which have been subjected to robust quality assurance checks. They access these through a unique, custom built online learning environment created specifically for the delivery of programmes in design and the visual arts. Students have one to one support from dedicated online tutors and they also interact with fellow students within lively online forums. Our tutors and support staff are experienced professionals and practitioners who guide and support students through all aspects of their studies, as well as advising them about progression and careers.

We deliver a fully comprehensive learning experience for the international student whose ambition is to gain a UK Design qualification, and experience the benefit of support from tutors and staff based both in the UK and with our in-country partner; literally, the best of both worlds. Consequently, we welcome the opportunity to work in partnership with EAC and look forward to bringing our enthusiasm for Online Education and experience in the delivery of Design based programmes to the Caribbean.

When highly motivated students encounter well written learning materials and dedicated, professional staff, the result is a world class educational experience. We look forward to welcoming you to the Interactive Design Institute.
