The sheer quality, affordability and support they offer is second to none - Tony Creeney
At 18, I wasn't what you would call 'mature' enough to decide what I would like a career in. Instead, I completed 3 A Levels, which I did not have any interest in and got average grades. Then came the long list of endless soul destroying jobs - on after another like a conveyor belt. Then my friends started finishing their degrees and going into graduate jobs, and it was around this time, being thrown into a corner in a dark office, that I decided that enough was enough - out came Google and the research began!
I always had an interest in Law, but due to my below average A Level results, I thought that was out of reach. However, knowing that my brother did an Access course, I stumbled upon DistanceLearningCentre.com, and after reading the testimonials - and a few reviews from student forums - I enrolled onto the Access to Law course!
I am not one for flattery, but DistanceLearningCentre.com are about to get it by the bucket load, because the sheer quality, affordability and support they offer is second to none! I can honestly say that without them, I would still be in a rut. But now, I have a bright future!
Their materials are easy to understand, and with the distance learning I could fit it around my work so I could earn and learn! The tutors are great and always very helpful, and extremely easy to get hold of so if there was problem, they would help out.
Now I am going onto University doing an LLB Law, and I would never have done it without the team at DistanceLearningCentre.com. Thank you so much guys! (Jun 16)
It is well structured and you are given realistic deadlines for each module - Georgia Lynton
Fab5 Award Nominee
I always knew I wanted to be a social worker, however not having the qualifications put a hold on my dream career. After some long research DistanceLearningCentre.com ticked all of the boxes! I enrolled on the Access to Higher Education Social Work Course and it was the best decision I ever could have made.
My tutor was incredibly supportive and I was able to work at a pace that worked for me. During the course the level of support our tutors give us is so beneficial, and I am so grateful for the wonderful tutor I had and the invaluable support provided.
For a while it was hard to know whether or not I would finish in time for moderation. The course itself requires time, dedication and commitment. It is well structured and you are given realistic deadlines for each module. However, it does take a lot of self motivation and you do have to make a timeline with what needs to be achieved by when to be ready in time for moderation.
Now, less than a year later, I have been accepted into the University of Southampton and hope to start this September. This wouldn't have been possible had I not studied with DistanceLearningCentre.com and I would recommend them to everyone! (Jun 16)
If only my school teachers could see me now and the quality of work - Natasha Waite
Fab5 Award Nominee
My school days were not particularly successful despite my teachers frequently telling me I had the ability but not the motivation and the thought of returning to education after such a long gap was both daunting and exciting.
I decided to follow a dream of becoming an Occupational Therapist after working closely with them for the past four years and decided to enrol on the DistanceLearningCentre.com Access Course for Allied Health Professions which has given me the flexibility to study alongside working full time, retaking my GCSE Maths, moving house, a neck injury and family life.
My tutors have been instrumental in my success and have kept me realistic and grounded, especially when I was giving myself a hard time over the quality of my work. When I decided to go to University I was worried about how I would find academic studies but they have prepared me well for that and I am very excited about the prospect of starting my course in just a few weeks.
Completing my Access Course through distance learning has demonstrated to my chosen university that I will be able to manage the course, which places an emphasis on self directed study and research.
If only my school teachers could see me now and the quality of work I have submitted during my studies - I am sure they would be very surprised! (Jun 16)
My tutor encouraged me to maintain a positive approach. I cannot thank my tutor enough - Lamin Jallow
Fab5 Award Nominee
I couldn't have done it without your brilliant support!!
I hadn't studied for many years, since my GCSE's. But your well-structured learning platform, flexibility and professionalism had made Access to Higher Education Diploma in Social Work a success, and an enjoyable journey. I had a great support and team work with my tutor, who I thought was brilliant.
I was disappointed at times, when I realised that I was behind with my assignments, due to work commitments, I even thought about deferring my admission to University till 2017, but my tutor encouraged me to maintain a positive approach and work harder within the assignments to meet admission criteria. Looking back now I cannot thank my tutor enough.
Without a doubt I will recommend DistanceLearningCentre.com to anyone who find time a challenge, and a barrier to adult learning. The online resources are exceptional; they help you gain control of your assignments.
I had offers from Universities of my choice even before I completed the course. I am now en route to University of Winchester in September 2016, to study a degree course in Social Work. I am enthused about the career pathway that you helped make possible. Once again massive thank you to DistanceLearningCentre.com. (Jun 16)
Recommended to anyone who has a busy lifestyle regardless of past learning experience - Sean Reddington
Fab5 Award Nominee
I started looking into an Access Course following my decision to leave the Armed Forces. I had to conduct my GSCE maths to the required standard before being able to proceed. After a lot of thought and deliberation I decided on using DistanceLearningCentre.com. Some friends in the military advised me this was a very adaptable course to suit a busy work environment.
WELL... I was not let down. I had a lot of issues in work and social life during the course and the tutors and the company were fantastic, very helpful and informative and coming from not writing an essay in 12 years it was a very easy transition. Even when you change modules to a different tutor the information and communication was fantastic and considering this is a distance learning course I did not feel I missed out by not going to college.
