“The professional standards of materials, assignments and assessments are excellent. Feedback and encouragement from mentor/marker really helpful. Layout of course is excellent: clear, concise and challenging.”
M Tyas, N Yorkshire

“I found the course very well designed and user-friendly. The course material was well laid out and easy to read, and progressed gradually from simple ideas and examples to very complex material. Far from being dry and rather boring as I expected, it was well written with a hint of humour, and a very wide range of exercises which kept my interest. It was ideal for a beginner like me to develop the confidence to begin a freelance career. The office and tutorial support available was excellent, and assignments were always returned quickly with very helpful comments.”
