Really great and supportive tutors that are always happy to help

The course overall if really helpfull but the dlc platform could use some improvements. Although it is quite organised for new people like me it is really confusing and I personally really struggle to work with the platform. I think it should be more simplified. Cuz when u open a section of the dlc the first thing I see it alot of words and I have to scroll through the whole page to find the assessment or the saq I need. It only needs some simplification so thay inexperienced students like us won't have to spend alot of time trying to fi d their way in the platform.

The tutors respond quickly and there is plenty of helpful information when needed

Just some condescending comments from a substitute tutor I worked with, while my tutor was off on annual leave .

So far I have really enjoyed my course and I have learnt alot. My biology tutor was very patient and helpful.

It is an excellent option for adults who do not follow the pattern way. Serious company, reliable, organised, great tutors. I'm doing Access to HE after many years since I left College, and I don't have any complaints.

I have had an amazing start to my course, I have found the material very helpful and I feel I have already learned so much in such a short amount of time (2 months). My tutor has been very helpful, giving in-depth information to all my questions and has been very quick with her responses and review of my work. I have found the ‘do it in your own time’ pace so beneficial , as the lack of time constraints has allowed me to not stress about getting things done before a set deadline and has allowed me to put 100% into my studies. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

Very supportive and motivating tutors. Easy to comprehend system overall.

The tutor was so amazing and very patient.

My tutor is really good and she makes sure she explains everything to me.

The support I received during my course was exceptional. I am so grateful for all the opportunities this diploma will open up for me. I never thought I’d get the chance to make something of myself, after suffering will mental health during my late teens, I had to drop out of my A levels, I feel like this has given me the chance to rewrite my destiny.

The course materials are thorough and the assessments challenging. The tutors are extremely supportive. A great place to study with. Even though it's distance learning, experts are on hand to help.

I love the fact that studies is very flexible and that I get to focus on one topic at a time. Also, the tutors are available at all times to assist when the need arises.

I am very pleased with my start with DLC, the work is very thorough and relevant. I am supported by my tutor and once I understood how all processes worked, submitting my work and receiving feedback has gone very well. Thank you DLC! Brigid.

Tutors are always there for support but also give a lot of independance. The webinars and podcasts are really helpful and materials easy to digest. Overall great experience.

Very good company ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I started an Access to nursing course in March 2024. I was provided with a cost of the course which I took as a monthly fee. As I have taken longer than 365 days to complete the course due to my job, I am now being told I have to pay another £85 per months over and above what I have already paid for the full course!. Be warned, Distance Learning Centre perceives their website as terms of contract. You the student have no control of the updates on the website after you have already signed up, so effectively you should screenshot each page on their website as proof of what you have signed up for. Unfortunately, paying again for a course that I have already paid for, does not sit well. If you do not have the time to complete the entire course within 365 days, YOU WILL BE SUBJECT TO AN ADDITIONAL £85 PER MONTH. If I had known this I would never have signed up, I had made it very clear from day one my life and Job does not allow me to do the course in 365 days, but was never told in writting personally to me, I may be subject to additonal payments should I go over the 365 Days. Also when I called to speak to someone in finance about the charges, were told that this company does not take calls, you will have to email them. So my life story was told to a receptionist, who fobbed me off by saying it is just £85. We are not gettting anywhere with this. When asked for her name, she put the phone down! Be Warned - Get the agreement in email, not from a website. Also the website has pages and pages - it is not easily visible to find. I still have not found where the additonal fees terms are on their website. The fee structure is not very transparent. Its a great way to make money I suppose, but not very good business practice. Would not be recommending this company to any student. Students should be warned in writing at an acceptible point during the course of additional costs, not when they are paying their last installment.

I am confused they just sent passwords and explained nothing ,only to be told it’s wrong, I wouldn’t recommend for first timers, it will be good for people that have been in university before

The course materials are really easy to understand and the assignments stretch me but are achievable. Marking and feedback is excellent and helpful and I'm enjoying the course. I had lots of help with UCAS as well and have received offers already. Thank you.

I have been supported well throughout with my course, it has been easy to understand the information given to you to answer the assessments but has a good amount of self research, which will help prepare me for uni.
The physiotherapy course has been interesting and has a lot of biology of all levels from GCSE to higher A Level and possibly uni year 1 units, which have kept me on my toes!
