I completed my Certificate in Nail…

I completed my Certificate in Nail Technology and had a mixed experience. The staff are AMAZING and always offer great support. Ellena, the course instructor offers excellent insight and advice around the realities of being a working Nail Technician. My issues are with the platform itself and the out of date education being provided (which is NOT the fault of Open Colleges) and the lack of emphasis of WHERE nail products are manufactured for higher safety. For example: 1. Having to upload a 8-10 minute recording, in mp4 format, that is under 470mb is ridiculous. (It says 500mb but anything over 470-480 won’t work) 2. The overwhelming typos and confusing sentence structure is absolutely unprofessional to say the least 3. The constant going on about nail polish when MOST NAIL TECHS DO NOT USE this is out of date (again not the fault of OC) 4. The lack of actual education around Nail Art is disappointing given the reality of today’s working Nail Tech and what we are expected to be able to do/create Overall, the staff are fantastic but the platform itself? Definitely needs to be improved.

Lots of room for improvement

the reading materials were often set for the American context rather than Australian and often full of typos. Navigating around the modules when doing assignments was clunky. Assessment tasks included menial activities that were time consuming but not a reasonable test of skill or knowledge (eg 'write an email to explain your findings'). Requirement for role plays wih multiple actors was a burden on family.

Highly Recommend

One of the great services of Open Colleges was having quick access to a teacher and get feedback within an hour. The times when the teacher was away they would contact me via email or phone when back at work. This service made learning blockages minimal and thus made studying easy and enjoyable. The mini video lectures, quizes and written material was straightforward to understand and the assignments were all applicable to practical accounting work. A few months after finishing my Certificate IV in Accounting and Bookkeeping I obtained a full-time accounting job. A big reason for this was the quality of the course from Open Colleges was of a high standard and the assistance from teachers was excellent. Highly recommend Open Colleges

I had the nicest experience ever with…

I had the nicest experience ever with Open Colleges. I was looking for a school to specialise in Leadership and Management on the Internet and I was very blessed that I chose Open Colleges and I'll never regret my choice because I found more than what I expected. Since it was my first experience with electronic learning, I found a great help and assistance from staff and all student support officers by email and even by phone. I thank all of them so much.During my studies, whenever I face a problem, their reply was fast and helpful. For the trainers and assessors, they were very kind and helpful. They are ready to assist at any time. They give constructive advice to help me excell in my assessments. They are passionate about seeing their students succeed and make achievements. I wish the assessments would be assessed by trainers and assessors in less than ten business days. Also I wish the resources would contain sample case studies and activities with hints. Overall, my experience at Open Colleges has been exceptional and unforgettable. I'm happy that I graduated but at the same time very sad that this nice experience comes to its end. Once more, thanks a lot to all the working staff at Open Colleges Australia. You are the best. Thawriya from Algeria

I loved every second of my course

I loved every second of my course which was certificate III in education support. The course work was very straight forward and the website was easy to navigate!!. The teachers were incredibly so fast at replying and marking assignments while providing in-depth comments. I would definitely complete another course through open colleges and highly recommend them!

Finished one, jumped into another!

Have just completed Cert IV in Accounting and have jumped straight into a Diploma of Leadership and Management. I love that I can learn at my own pace, the context is put into real-life situations which, in my opinion makes it much more relatable.

Was a terrible experience

Was a terrible experience. Would never recommend to anyone. Cost an absolute fortune . Had no help had to struggle on my own had to extend course for upto 9 months because staff couldn't get their crap together . Huge waits on marking assessments. Weeks waiting for email replies. Months waiting for someone to come out and assess me in placement. All off this cost me a lot of money not only in having to pay for extensions but also loss in wages as your hold up cost me a job. Terrible experience all round .
