Open Colleges provided overall a great alternative to studying a course with flexible hours. When approached (several times) the student support and Trainers team were extremely helpful and genuine about wanting students completing there course. The feedback I would give is to have scheduled regular check up calls to keep students on track (reminder/check in emails are easy to either skip or miss all together). The main flaw with this style of education is the lack of 'face-to-face' contact which you would get in a classroom setting. Either this or have a timetable of due dates for portions of the course to minimise students not leaving enough time for each assessment or completion of the course. The Cert IV Vet Nursing was a very big Unit to complete, and certainly took up more time than ever anticipated. I certainly fell into the trap of not knowing how much time to allocate per task which resulted in extensions and cramming in a lot of the work at the 'last minute'. Having goals for where you should ideally be in your completed content during the set duration of the course would help immensely. The content and resources the course provided was great and informative, as well as very accessible help by trainers if approached. I appreciate every effort Open Colleges put into the eventual completion of my course. Special thank you to Amanda and Victoria!!
