The major role of self-directed learning (SDL), a sub-division of
autonomy, in successful learning at distance education has been
confirmed by various studies. Although learners pass General
English courses before studying any ESP courses at distance
education of Iran, they usually lack the preliminary skills for
independent language learning. The current study aimed to explore
the effect of self-directed training (SDT) on ESP learners'
self-directed learning readiness (SDLR) and their academic
achievements in ESP courses. The results revealed that SDT enhanced
ESP learners' SDLR and their academic achievements in the
corresponding ESP courses. Moreover, no difference was observed
between the male and female learners' SDLR and ESP scores. The
findings imply that an appropriate training is needed to improve
learners' SDLR. It can contribute to a successful ESP learning at
distance learning.
