International Correspondence Schools Ltd (ICS) is the world's largest and most experienced distance learning organisation. In 1890 the first student was enrolled on a formal course and International Correspondence Schools was incorporated in the USA in 1901.
ICS was a pioneer in teaching skills by home study, presenting the opportunity to learn while earning and to relate study to everyday work. Our aim is to make learning as accessible as possible, allowing busy people to get the skills, training and education they want, in a way that offers them complete flexibility.
We’ve been helping people achieve their goals for 120 years. In 1890 we pioneered a new way to learn, allowing people to study in their own homes. Today, from our head office in the centre of Glasgow, Scotland, we follow the same principles, but modern technology, including e-mail and the Internet, makes learning even more effective and convenient.
