The program is open to all interested applicants: those who want to take up refresher courses or second degree, college undergrads, working students, Filipinos from various regions in the Philippines, and Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) who wish to pursue a college degree. The program also gives an opportunity for international students and people afflicted with disabilities to study in the comforts of their home.
The AMA Online Education program is a form of study where students are not under a continuous and immediate supervision of teachers in a lecture/classroom setting. It favors an independent self-learning style which takes place outside of a formal classroom.
Despite the physical separation between the learner and the teacher, students are not left on their own. Learners are expected to perform the usual learning activities done by students in traditional classes. Unlike face-to-face classes, course materials are usually the starting point for study and teaching/learning is mediated through the use of technology.
Online mentoring and tutorials and other forms of knowledge transfer via e-learning method are developed and adopted for faster delivery of lessons. These strategies enhance access to the online university degree programs.
Students are likewise provided with specially packaged instructional materials or self-learning modules which they could study on their own most of the time.
Keeping up with the rapid pace of the digital age, AMA University now cater to all aspiring learners who want to obtain a diploma for an accredited undergraduate degree through the use of technology such as the internet.
