The history of the Faculty of Distance Learning started in 1998 when
the Centre of Distance Learning was created. Centre was transformed into
the Institute of Distance Learning in 2002 and then, in 2004, as a
result of successful introduction of distance technologies into the
process of studies and the permanently increasing number of students,
the Institute was transformed into the Faculty of Distance Learning
(FDL).
The Faculty of Distance Learning organizes the studying process with
the use of modern educational technologies. It helps to effectively
combine work and studies, quality and reasonable prices, state
educational standards and individual approach. Choosing among the forms
of studies students are offered a part-time form or studying by
correspondence. Those who have secondary vocational economic education
can study at abridged programs of some fields.
Plekhanov University represented by FDL became a member of the
European Distance and E- Learning Network (EDEN) and received
accreditation for certification of financial market specialists.
