In this paper, we present the methodology and results derived from a distance learning programme offered by a higher education institute to adults. Computer Science and interdisciplinary courses are offered through a Web-based Learning Management System (LMS). Administrative, technical and pedagogical issues are considered systemically and a methodology is developed taking into consideration the group of learners, appropriate learning methods, assessment methods, social and economical aspects concerning distance learning and the technological infrastructure in place. An assessment procedure is reached and carried out thoroughly involving all components of the programme. Results depict success in certain aspects of the overall programme, as well as suggestions for enhancement of the distance learning setting. © 2008 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
