KODE offers a range of practical courses to development workers – particularly those working in the field at community level projects in Africa.  KODE has put in place a 'blended' learning package for students which includes in-country workshops, specialized tutor support and advice, a dedicated website to facilitate student communication and, essentially, full course material/content on CD.  This learning method facilitates participants to work through the concepts, principles and practice of each course topic at their own pace, in their own time to gain key skills in each of the subject areas.

We believe there is a strong market for short professional development courses among our typical target learners working in NGOs and CBOs thereby meeting the education and training needs of development workers.  This innovative distance learning delivery will help to further Kimmage DSC's strategy to localize capacity building and further develop our educational partnerships in the South.
