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?
It's really very simple. We supply you with the appropriate study materials to head for a particular qualification or exams. You receive your course materials in one go so you know exactly what you are getting for your money. You then receive support through a personal tutor to help you get through the course materials.

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!

What if I am not entirely happy with my course materials?

If you are not happy with your course materials then simply let us know within 7 days of receiving your course materials and we will then allow you to return your course within 14 days of notification for a full no questions asked refund, or allow you to swap the course for another course of the same value.
