Digital Photography (Level 3 Award), A Home Study, Distance Learning Course

NIA

08/02/2016
What I would highlight: I have thoroughly enjoyed the Level 3 in Digital Photography course - I am a little sad that I have actually come to the end of it however, the sense of achievement is great! I would highly recommend this course for anyone with a keen interest in Photography, whether that is as a career or as just a hobby. The challenges of each assignment gets the brain thinking and makes you want to achieve more and more each time. The support provided by the tutor was brilliant, Jeremy was always happy to help, even down to how to send the assignments across to him. Jeremy's feedback and marking of the assignments were also very quick and these were usually received within 24 hours! This course has opened many doors for me and I will be using the qualification and the skills learnt to progress further professionally. Thank You.

Canine Studies (Level 3)

Sarah

08/02/2016
What I would highlight: Because of the online education (Canine studies) I had received, I am now starting to build my personal work. I strongly encourage people to enroll in this program. You will be glad you did. It\'s a very informative and easy to understand program.. When I applied for the canine studies program I knew I had to give my best in order to get the best outcomes possible. But I never thought by doing so I would develop a wide knowledge which would serve me for the rest of my life. Consequently, I have the confidence to be successful . But most importantly, I know I can achieve anything if I work hard at it. At this point, there is no doubt I had chosen the right path. I most certainly will apply for another program and I strongly encourage people to enroll in this program. You will be glad you did.it\'s a very informative and easy to understand program..

Business Consultancy (Level 3)

Elizabeth

08/02/2016
What I would highlight: This course has been one of the most enjoyable and informative level 3 courses I have studied. The course was easy to follow and the assignments relevant to the material. The course expects independent study, such as research, but this is very easily managed. There are 13 assignments which carry a certain amount of indepth information to answer but this is easily achievable with how well the course has been written. The end of course assessment was a pleasure to do and something I learned the most from. The help and advice from Joshua Cole, the tutor, has been invaluable. Joshua strives to get his students to pass the assignments by outlining clearly what is expected and how to achieve answering the assignments concisely with minimum difficulty. The feedback was positive and constructive and most of all very encouraging. I would recommend studying this course, not only does it enhance study skills and knowledge but carries a recognised qualification which is advantageous within the workforce or even gaining a university or college place.
