An honest opinion, do not give them a cent.
Regarding the CERT IV in Accounting and Diploma of Accounting. Unfortunately, one star is the lowest you can score. This isn't going to be some angry, ranting, over-the-top dramatic review about my experience, I will simply state the facts. 1. I found hundreds of errors. Hundreds. That isn't an exaggeration. Errors in spelling, math, concepts, etc. You name it, OpenColleges found a way to make a mistake. 2. The staff and student support honestly didn't seem to care about the errors. I took screenshot after screenshot and sent them in with my official complaint, only to be told in the end, "We acknowledge that there are mistakes." 3. I am taking additional tax courses by H&R Block (which I do recommend) because the tax units were so riddled with errors that it was almost impossible to get through them. 4. I was so frustrated, anxious, and depressed, more often than not due to the errors I would find. It made studying very difficult. I could go on and on, but if I prevent at least one person from wasting their time with this nonsense then I will feel more accomplished than I do after completing a Cert IV and Diploma with OpenColleges. The Certificate and Diploma don't feel worth the paper they were printed on. Don't let flashy discounts pull you in. Spend more on TAFE. Just don't study with OpenColleges, just do not do it. Looking forward to the "Sorry you feel that way" response this review will receive from OpenColleges. Edit: Notice the response from OC below. They only addressed the spelling errors. The spelling errors, while a problem, are not the main problem. The errors with the content are the problem! The mathematical errors are the problem. They will dance around the issue and refuse to acknowledge it.
