Photo of Distance Learning School in England, UK"I thought you would like to see what one of your pupils has been producing as a result of your Web Design courses. The courses have proved to be an outstanding learning opportunity. The tutorials are extremely well produced and the technical support has been outstanding. Each time I had a query you replied swiftly and explained things in a coherent way. Every aspect of the tutoringhas been outstanding and not only will I will be using you in the future but also recommending them within the home education environment. Thank you!"
Nicky John, Cwmbran (Webmaster - HTML & CSS / JavaScript Student)

"I started my WebMaster course a few months ago and although I had a basic/intermediate knowledge of HTML already, I must say that I hugely expanded on that knowledge and gained a whole lot more. My confidence has grown with regards to web design and I can´t wait to start the next course (WebMaestro). Thank you for the help received"
Susan Seccombe - Murcia, Spain (Webmaster - HTML & CSS / JavaScript Student)

"A couple of years ago, I signed up for your Webmaster Website Design Course. Following the completion of the course, I designed a website based upon classic television programmes. The site has now grown to some 14 megabytes and in the process I have had over 130,000 visitors as well as recognition from some of the leading Internet Publications in this country and the British Broadcasting Authority. I have also been interviewed on radio stations in Britain and as far away as Australia"

FAQs:

Image of Distance Learning School in England, UKHow do the courses work?

What are the advantages of Distance Learning?

There are many advantages to Distance Learning, but the main advantages have to be cost and flexibility. With Distance Learning there is no need to attend a classroom environment so there is no waste of time or other resources in transport, commuting to specific location for each class, this is also a great advantage for those with restricted mobility. You can learn at your own pace, so you can get through your course as quickly or slowly as you please, and of course the costs are also a lot less!

Woodgrove Tutorials
Courses / Programs
Woodgrove Tutorials are an award winning college and a training provider of the Institute of Certified Bookkeepers (ICB) courses through distance learning / home study.

ICB's primary objectives are to promote bookkeepers and enable them to gain recognition as an integral element of the financial system. The ICB controls this through qualifications and grades of membership which recognise the achievements of its members in academia, experience and individual competence.

There are many ICB courses which range from beginners through to expert levels. A trainee will normally start at the beginner's level and take incrementally more challenging tests throughout their career, although it is not uncommon for students to start at a more intermediate level if they already have relevant experience.

The ICB qualifications attained as a result are enormously beneficial in gaining employment as a bookkeeper. Although the ICB provide the examination body, they don’t teach the courses themselves. With Woodgrove Tutorials, students receive a ‘hard copy’ Course Modules on enrolment (by email and/or post by air mail) and then submit assignments online.
ICB Bookkeeping courses:

- ICB Level I Certificate in Basic Bookkeeping

- ICB Level II Certificate in Manual Bookkeeping

- ICB Level II Certificate in Computerised Bookkeeping

- ICB Level III Diploma in Manual Bookkeeping

Students receive a ‘hard copy’ of the Course Modules on enrolment (by email and/or post by air mail) and then submit assignments online. The end exam for the ICB Level 1 is taken online at your home. External exams for levels II & III can be taken in most countries around the world.
