For the Learner:

The approach places the responsibility of learning on the learner. It enables him/her to benefit from a custom-designed program sensitive to his/her needs. He/She seeks information and knowledge when necessary. He/she foregoes content he/she does not need or wish to study. Remedial prescription may be easily and quickly pursued. More importantly, the approach teaches heuristic skills; that is, how to work independently and how to discipline one`s self.

For the Module Mentor:

The module mentor who makes himself/herself available for the consultation and mentoring plays the role of a facilitator and catalyst for learning. He/She provides for individual rate and style of learning while guiding the learner to action research. His/Her expertise in his/her field of specialization, his/her practical experiences as well as wholistic perspective and orientation to life and work in organizations and communities are valuable to the accompaniment the module mentor provides for the learner`s growth and development. As such, his/her accountability to the learner is very significant.
