Learn hands-on, in person

A typical week mixes self-paced online work with one or more scheduled campus sessions.

What on-campus and hybrid study looks like

On-campus programs put you in the room with instructors and classmates for scheduled, in-person classes. You get hands-on practice, direct feedback, and the structure of a set timetable.

Hybrid programs combine on-campus classes with online coursework. You complete part of your coursework online, on your own time, and come to campus for the sessions that need to happen in person, like labs, skills practice, and assessments.

Both formats lead to the same recognized diploma as Robertson’s online programs, with the same Workforce career support after you graduate.

Why study in person

Labs, simulations, and skills sessions you can't replicate at home.

Face time with instructors

Industry-experienced instructors who give feedback in the moment.

A campus community

Classmates, study groups, and on-campus support when you need it.

Is hybrid right for you?

Hybrid suits people who want in-person training but can’t be on campus every day. You handle readings, lectures, and assignments online, then come in for the parts that are better done in person. A typical week mixes self-paced online work with one or more scheduled campus sessions.

It works well if you’re balancing work or family, live near a campus, and want hands-on experience without a full in-person timetable.

Questions about studying in person

How much of a hybrid program is on campus?

It varies by program, but hybrid typically means most coursework is online with regular on-campus sessions for labs, skills practice, and assessments. Each program page lists its specific mix.

Can I take any program on campus, or only some?

Most diploma programs are offered on campus at one or more locations. Program pages show which campuses and formats are available.

What happens if I miss an in-person session?

Talk to your instructor as soon as possible. Some sessions can be made up; hands-on labs and assessments may need to be rescheduled.

Do I need to live in the same city as the campus?

For on-campus and hybrid study you attend in person, so living within commuting distance of your campus is recommended. Fully online programs have no location requirement.

Is the diploma different from the online version?

No. On-campus, hybrid, and online lead to the same recognized Robertson diploma — the credential doesn't note the delivery format.
