Dear Students

 

 

As you are aware, TOP Education Institute has arranged to offer full online delivery of all courses from 30 March to 24 April in T1, 2020, as a necessary action to minimise the impacts of COVID-19.

 

During this period of full online delivery, e-texts are a great tool to complement your online study.

 

Advantages of using e-texts:

 

Easy access – you can read it on a tablet or mobile phone

 

No need to carry heavy print books

 

Cost effective – e-texts are on average 30-50% cheaper than print copies

 

Instant delivery – swift download to a device of your choice upon purchase; some publishers allow multiple downloads

 

Searchable content – e-texts come with features and functions that print books do not have. They include hyperlinks, audio, video, interactive images, pop ups, comments and notes. E-texts make study fun and easy

 

It is relatively easy to purchase an e-text. Simply go to the publisher website, type in the book title in the search box. When the book appears, click add to cart and proceed to pay. Download can be expected within 24 hours or sooner.

 

Most core texts required in your study at the Institute have e-texts. Please visit some of the major publisher sites below for purchase.
