Completing this course has given me confidence again - Lorraine McCauley

I started the Nursing and Midwifery Access course on 15th September 2017 and finished it on 4th June 2018. I was able to study online in the evenings while working full time (over 40 hours a week). It was the toughest thing I have ever done in my life but so worth it.

I never thought I would be going to University at the age of 34. In September 2018 I am starting an Adult Nursing Degree. This would not be possible if I had not done the Access course. The tutors are so helpful and very responsive. I would recommend DistanceLearningCentre.com to anyone. Completing this course has given me confidence again. I feel that I can achieve anything if I put my mind to it. Thanks DistanceLearningCentre.com!!! (Jun 2018)

The support from my tutors has been incredible and I am now following my dream - Nancy Muronda

I have recently completed my Access to Nursing Diploma. I have thoroughly enjoyed the course.

However I struggled a lot and it has taken me a lot longer to complete. The support from my tutors has been incredible and I am now following my dream!

Thank you so much to the DistanceLearningCentre.com team. Keep up the good work! (Jun 2018)

I contacted the University I wished to attend to check if the course was suitable, and it went from there - Marie Slater

Approaching 40, and with a husband and 4 sons, I thought it was about time I did something for me. Working 32 hours a week as a therapy assistant, I knew occupational therapy was for me. I searched the internet for the best solution, which was to undertake a flexible Access Course, that fitted around work & family life. DistanceLearningCentre.com had that course. I contacted the University I wished to attend to check if the course was suitable, and it went from there.

I completed it in 10 months, and was able to get the 33 Distinctions needed for the course. It has been hard at times, but its about remaining focused on the overall long term goal. The Facebook page was extremely helpful, both with support and advice from fellow students, but also information about topics/units from other students and what resources they found useful. I won't lie, I am enjoying all my spare time currently, before uni starts in September.

The course worked for me, it's about having good time management and being disciplined. Having a supportive family for those crucial deadlines were a big help too. The tutors from DistanceLearningCentre.com were fab, they gave encouragement, and reminded me to stay positive. I knew that they were always at the end of an email if I needed them. It can be done!

This was a great course as it enabled me to study alongside my full time job - Chloe Adams

I work as an Emergency Care Assistant in the Ambulance Service; my natural progression would be to be a paramedic. To do this, I needed to complete the Access course to Higher Education in Paramedicine in order to fulfil the criteria and apply to University.

This was a great course as it enabled me to study alongside my full time job as I fitted the study around my shifts. The help and support of my tutors was always on hand. I am now in a position to apply to Portsmouth University to commence my Paramedic studies! (Jun 2018)

I could plan my own work and study when I wanted to - Ewelina Nair

Being a mum of two and working full-time meant that, due to time constraints, I could not attend classes at a local college. Studying via DistanceLearningCentre.com meant I could plan my own work, study when I wanted to and know that the support of my individual tutor is only an email or a phone call away.

I also received help and assistance with my UCAS application to ensure the application process went as straightforward as possible. I was pleased to achieve the required number of distinctions and secure a place for adult nursing degree with the University of Portsmouth.

My road to becoming a nurse began with the help of DistanceLearningCentre.com and it is something I will always remember. (Jun 2018)
