How are they still going
I will start with the negatives. The first two to three hours in class is spent forced to talk about our week from work to our personal lives which is a waste of our precious time. Our marking guidelines changed during the second year an our tutor wasn't informed so not only was our work marked as a fail, but we had to forward it to head office to get it marked correctly. In our second lesson we found out that a class mate got an £1200 discount due to the university struggling to meet the number needed for target. We were all given the option to pay in full or pay over two years with interest with no discount. There is no support for helping you find a placement and unlike the bacp at Newman's uni there is no access to a library. It will like me and my classmates take you at least six months to a year after passing to obtain your certificates due to there system they can take your money but posting your certificate is something else. You learn different techniques but rarely practice them in class. There was a student who had only completed three out of twelve assignments for the first year but was still allowed to proceed to the second year and not only join but interrupt our class. The good points are that its cheaper than the bacp courses. Would i recommend this course hell no.
