Reduce energy consumption by up to 87%
In a groundbreaking study by the UK Open University, full-time e-learning courses consumed 87 per cent less energy and 85 per cent lower CO2 emissions than equivalent campus‐based courses – mainly due to a reduction in travel and elimination of on-campus energy consumption. Workplace learning is not the same as HE but some of these benefits will also apply.
