Oxford Distance Learning College

I'm getting on in life and wanted something to do alongside my current business work. I took up the accounting course as I may as well replace the costs of an accounting if I can because we all know how expensive they can get.

After completing the course I can say with confidence that Im certain I can now do the major parts of my accountants job and just keep them for advice along the road.

Anyone working for themselves, I would recommend an accounting course, cheap and pretty straight forward with the modules.

The material was sectioned out well which was easy to follow, the course guidance explained fully what i needed to complete beforehand in order to work through the course and take the exam at the end of the course. I was able to access the course material at anytime which was convenient for me instead of working to deadlines which isn't always feasible for me being a mum and working full time.

I learned about risk theories, looking at the environment for risks, risk structure, case studies and managing diversity.

The course was ideally designed for me as I was wishing to continue my professional development, however it is open to all students, its a ten unit course which is clearly designed and easy to follow. You work through each unit to gain knowledge and understanding of risk management, there is no exam with this course, you are assessed via coursework only.

The only requirement for this course was 120 hours study time.

I explored proactive and practice specific strategies relating to everything covered on the course about counselling skills for children and young people.

This is a great course as a stand alone or progression course for those who already have qualifications in Childcare, Child Psychology and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.

From my experience, you will gain knowledge of how to help develop a range of important and transferable skills such as data skills, presenting arguments and making recommendations on the basis of the available evidence and problem solving to help a business maximise their potential.

There are ten units which you will work through numerically this is to help keep you on track on such as, starting a business, financial planning, finance, people in business, operations management, marketing, strategies of marketing, accounts and managing change.

The recommended study time given per unit was 20 hours, this included reading and completing the unit assessment. I look forward to getting a job using my new qualification.

I enrolled onto this course as an add on to further my knowledge within the business sector. I am currently working in HR as an apprentice but to further my role I decided to enrol on to the accounting course so I can explore other areas of business management.

This course consisted of 12 units covering all of the main aspects of Advertising. Advertising managers oversee advertising and promotion staffs, which usually are small, except in the largest firms. The course provided me with a firm grounding and comprehensive understanding of advertising and the media in a business context. Thank you Oxford College.

The feedback I received form my tutors was so motivating, I couldn't wait to get started on the next unit. If I lacked motivation or needed help at any time I know I could contact a tutor and they would come back to me with valuable support.

I would recommend this college to anyone looking to do an online course, I cant believe I haven't done this sooner and will be looking for my next course shortly.

I enrolled onto the business administration course as I left secondary school, it was the easiest course I could find, or so I thought. I was young and thought it consisted of sitting in an office typing all day. However I was wrong, having completed this course I have completed several areas of knowledge such as writing letters, rush up on my English language and spelling and business management.

I enrolled on to this course because I felt it was the next step in my career development. I felt I had completed childcare, daycare and early years development and wanted to venture into another area of child development. Child Psychology for me was a great course and the best decision I've made. It was the next stage in my education development, it highlighted so many other areas of development in children I hadn't covered yet.
