    Hi Harsh,
    Distance learning is a mode of learning which helps to working professionals to manage their study along with work or helps to study in old age or helps if you are married and having a baby. Distance learning is an online mode. In distance learning, the person can attend lectures online, and the person gets soft copies. The person can attend the exams online too. You can study when you want to, you don't need to go to the college to attend the lectures.
