Easy to use, comprehensive course.
Not the cheapest course on line for this qualification but I felt the best overall. I don't like on line learning but this course was easy to use. Followed a logical sequence and more importantly there were no crashes or other IT problems. I'd use them again.

Over all good experience
Very good content well explained. My only problem was the size and colour of the script. Script need to be in black and larger. I am waiting for a cataract operation at the moment, as many others could be also, maybe also other eye problems which is made difficult when grey and small script is used.
