Would recommend them to everyone
I first used NCC Home Learning a few years ago and did not hesitate to study with them again this time. My Psychology course was written in 12 modules with well structured sections and examples to check your own learning before tackling the module assignments. The tutor support system worked really well for me and my assignment feedback was always emailed promptly with encouragement and suggestions. I enjoy distance learning because it fits in with my family and work commitments and NCC offer such a range of courses, there must be something to suit everyone! NCC Home Learning are very easy to work with and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a distance learning course. -
Thoroughly enjoyed the course and great tutor support.
My chosen course was perfect for my career choice and I enjoyed it so much, I have chosen another course with NCC home learning. Great tutor support, I would definitely recommend. -
Very enjoyable
I found the course very enjoyable and would recommend studying with NCC. The Psychology level 3 course was very informative and gave a good foundation for further study related to this topic.
The support centre was superb and extremely quick at responding to any questions I had regarding the assignment feedback. Shaun was a great great help if I required any support or had any questions. What I liked in particular about NCC support is that there is always someone in the support centre to talk to for guidance Monday to Friday, unlike many other online study centres who only correspond via email.
I will studying again next year with NCC, this time extending my knowledge with the Criminal Psychology course.
Thanks to you all at NCC support. -
I have enjoyed the course!
I would like to thank Shaun in support for all his assistance and Lindsey for her prompt return of my assignments and her comments. I have enjoyed the course! I wish it was recognised by the O.U. for credits! -
User-friendly' experience!
A very 'user-friendly' experience - easy to understand, communication with tutor is effortless, things are done efficiently and effectively and overall I enjoyed the experience. Thank you! -
Longer tutor support would be helpful
I would like to advance my Psychology on a higher level. Either in work place Psychology or Counselling. The course would be more beneficial if the tutor support was 18 months. Due to running my own large business my private time is limited. -
Thoroughly enjoyed the course
I thoroughly enjoyed the course. It was easy to follow and the suggested further reading was useful. In my opinion, the assignments were very important in helping me understand each module. The feedback was always helpful. I have been very impressed with admin support. Every issue or question has been dealt with very quickly. Excellent customer service.
