The OU offers a range of training and learning resources to equip your organisation with the skills and knowledge to stay ahead of the competition.
Continuing Professional Development (CPD)
We can develop innovative and flexible training material and are leaders in developing web-based distance learning courses, enabling staff to engage in development training from the workplace. We can deliver these through different mechanisms and can tailor them to meet your business needs.
Many OU courses are available online, using our leading-edge web-based learning tools. Staff can train without leaving the workplace, and apply their learning immediately.
We also license our course materials which you can use to prepare staff for your own qualifications. Our materials cover a range of media and are renowned by educators around the world for their high academic and educational standards.

Work-based distance learning
OU expertise is in working with employers to build flexible programmes for groups of learners, often geographically dispersed, who can’t or don’t want to be away from the workplace.
Blending high-quality materials, personal tuition and distance learning techniques, OU learning embeds development directly into workplace practice, developing skills to help achieve corporate objectives.
We bring the world of learning to the world of work. To find out more visit: The Open University for business.
