The course was extremely beneficial and I would recommend to anyone even considering a degree course next year. It gave me the freedom to study at a time that was convenient to me; the group forum was brilliant and gave me the confidence to ask questions, I had the ability to contact my tutor at any time and I really enjoyed the course.
