When I first received the coursework I wondered if I had bitten off more than I could chew! I read the information several times and each module was explained really well. Once I got into the course I really enjoyed it and found the experience really enjoyable. I'm an older student,being mid fifties, and I was a wee bit apprenhensive but everything you need is contained in the course material. Fantastic.

Informative and useful. I thoroughly enjoyed the diploma in youth counselling, and have found that I am more empathetic and understanding in my teaching career. I valued the feedback given from my tutor.

Comprehensive and very detailed. Brilliant reading lists and the guidance on academic referencing was superb. I have only seen this level of detail at undergraduate level. Impressive.

Great course. I loved it! I know I'm lucky to have done it as others haven't yet. I liked following Barry's case and gradually adding more and more to my assignments. I felt invested in the family.
