Studying from outside the UK

We’ve designed our courses so you can study from wherever you are in the world.

Our flexible online learning means you can study for an internationally recognised UK qualification regardless of time zone.

Our courses are a mix of on-demand content (guided reading from our extensive library, podcasts, video lectures, exercises and more), supported by live sessions on many courses, which are also recorded. We’ve designed our courses to be easy to follow, wherever you are in the world.

PR and communication practitioners join us from all over the world. Here are just a few places that PR Academy students have come from over the years:

  • The UAE (including Dubai), and MENA region
  • Ukraine
  • Oman
  • North America
  • Azerbaijan
  • Caribbean
  • Central and South America

All courses are taught and assessed in English.

If you have a large cohort that would like to study for a qualification, talk to us about running face-to-face workshops in your country. We can develop bespoke training programmes and come to you!

Independent Learning option

We’ve launched this option for some courses partly to make studying more affordable for students outside the UK. Because there is no live content, opting for Independent Learning means that for most practitioners UK sales tax (VAT) probably doesn’t apply.
