Learning People Reviews

The consultants and the student care team are very supportive

I am delighted to share my experience interacting with Angel Johnson-Rattre from Learning People, who assisted me with my cybersecurity certifications package. Angel embodies professionalism; her friendly and approachable demeanour instantly creates a supportive environment. Her "can-do" attitude, combined with her exceptional knowledge of the cybersecurity field, makes her an outstanding career advisor/coach. She provides valuable insights and practical recommendations for navigating the complexities of this industry. Above all, Angel is a genuinely kind individual, making her a remarkable asset to Learning People and a beautiful human being. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking cybersecurity certifications and career path guidance.

The staff here are very nice and try to help you.

It is with a heavy heart that I write this review, hoping no one else falls victim to the same situation I experienced with Learning People. I came to the UK for a master’s degree in Data Science and having no prior programming experience, I wanted extra help to build my skills. That’s when I found Learning People. Their sales rep sweet-talked me into enrolling, saying their platform would support me through the course, help me gain certifications, and even assist with job placement. I trusted him and signed up. About three weeks after enrolling, I found out I was pregnant. Knowing how tough pregnancy can be on me, I contacted the rep immediately to withdraw. But he convinced me not to cancel, saying I could take my time with the course and that my career mattered. I foolishly agreed, thinking I’d be supported. Fast forward – after giving birth, my child had complications, and my world turned upside down. I couldn't focus on the course at all. Despite this, Learning People gave me no support, no check-ins, and the “job placement help” was nowhere to be seen. To make matters worse, they told me the course had expired and could no longer be extended or left open for me, but I still owed and have to pay them the full £4,000 fee. I later found out that the same course materials were available on platforms like Udemy and DataCamp for less than £300! So, I was stuck with a £4,000 fee for content I couldn’t use and services I never received. Now, I’m being chased for the remaining £1,600, with threats of extra charges. It’s heartbreaking, especially since I’m struggling to provide for my family as my child still requires medical attention and as someone not entitled to any form of benefit in the UK, this has been a massive financial strain on my whole life. Please be cautious!!! If you're thinking of joining Learning People, do your research thoroughly before committing and do not fall for all these paid positive reviews you are seeing. This has been an incredibly painful and costly mistake for me and I cry every day asking what I have done wrong to deserve this.

Kylah has been truly amazing in providing support throughout my journey with learning people. She is always a phone call away and always is a pleasure to speak too. She is very supportive and the entire team at learning people have been great in ensuring all questions are answered and there to support you through learning.

Frederick was nice and super helpful. made me feel I can always ask for help and get supported whenever I needed it

Over the past year, I feel the company has improved on its student care team communication to students. Myself and my son have received very good support from Fred at Student care. The only reason I marked 4 and not 5 is because I feel there is much more room for a continuity of student care communication and less waiting time, plus less pressure of the student care team to answer everyone. A great course and good booking system for mentors. Many thanks to Fred for fabulous response times and support.

It has been an amazing journey with Learning People. The StudentCare team has been fantastic in assisting and the tutors have been beneficial, especially Peter. The online learning portal is rich with study materials both eBooks and video tutorials of all the topics in a particular certification. Within 6 months, I was able to complete my certifications (CompTIA A+, Network+, Security+ and Cloud+). I would wish to have the same support from the carrier team.

I had a fantastic experience studying with Learning People for my cybersecurity certifications. Their course material was well-structured, up-to-date, and aligned perfectly with industry standards. The support from their team was outstanding—they were always available to answer questions and offer guidance throughout my studies. The platform's flexibility allowed me to learn at my own pace, and the resources provided helped me pass my exams with confidence. I highly recommend Learning People to anyone looking to advance their career in cybersecurity!

Really liked the learning experience and achieved my first job in IT. Thanks to the team too.

Sophi has been amazing

My experience with learning people was positive. I started my studies a little late due to personal matters. once i was ready to start studying learning people were ready with me. they always checked in. constantly asking if there were any areas that they could assist me. Kylah even created a study guide for an exam i was struggling with. she was there to support me and also celebrate with me when i achieved my certifications. i was was also provide with tips on how to better my CV and how to prepare for my interviews. the support received was definitely worth it.

I have done courses on my own in the past reading high volume books to pass exams but the video format of these courses makes it very easy, clear and interesting. Oliver Frost was my learning consultant and he was very helpful anytime I needed help with anything.

Learning People have always been professional and caring. A great team.

Learning People’s Front-End Developer course has been an outstanding experience. The modules are clear and well-organized, breaking down complex concepts into manageable lessons. The quizzes and projects are challenging, pushing you to apply your skills in real-world scenarios. It's a perfect course for anyone serious about front-end development. Highly recommend!

Helpful and informative, I’m happy with the learning people student care.

Awful experience...... No empathy and sympathy I applied for this course and after being promised all the assistant through the course. Due to my mental health, I couldn't join the online classes for months. And no one cares in getting in touch. Instead they were taking their direct debit each month. Since I wouldn't be able to attend the course again. And I rang to discussed with the team, he advised I speak to the loan company, which I did. After discussing with the loan company, which an agreement was reached to cancel my contract, that I wouldn't have to pay any charges. I explained to her it was due to my mental health. The loan company explained the loan contract to me, that it has carries no penalty. I rang Learning people to inform them the outcome of our discussion. Learning people team wasn't empathetic and all them care about is money. The team representative was so loud on the phone and, what he was particular about was money. After providing proof from my doctor to inform them about my health. Only for learning people team to ring me today, asking me to pay for courses I never attended. I had an accident a week ago, which I'm still traumatised and in the healing progress. I stated on the phone that I'm currently sick, only for the financial team to send a threatening email. Learning people doesn't care about their students but money. I regret knowing them, they have made feel so bad to the point of having a suicide thought. I stated my mental health condition with them which I've being suffering since the death of my daughter. I thought the course was ok at a time but as time goes on I feels I couldn't continue. Why bothering me after everything I'm going through.

Really helpful team, personal and compassionate, good e learning with positive outcomes

I had high hopes when I signed up for a course with The Learning People, but unfortunately, my experience so far has been very underwhelming. They are extremely quick to sell you the course and paint a rosy picture of the support you'll receive throughout your journey. However, as soon as I paid, the support they promised has been non-existent. I was sold the course by someone who seemed genuinely lovely over the phone and was very responsive before I signed up. But since then, it's been a completely different story. I've been trying to reach him on LinkedIn for over a month now and have been completely ignored. The initial enthusiasm he showed is nowhere to be found. I’ve only just started the course, and I'm already feeling let down. Given this is the beginning of my journey towards a career change, the lack of support is not just frustrating but also worrying. It doesn’t give me any confidence that The Learning People will deliver on the promises they made during the sales pitch. If this is what the experience looks like at the start, I dread what’s ahead. Proceed with caution if you're considering signing up.

Support team were attentive and detailed rendering the needed guide/mentoring I needed in my career path
