How can i trust an online learning course?

Question

How can i trust an online learning course?

Answer 1

look for accreditation-just like a brick and mortar school would have (same recognized organiztion)-not accredited by Mickey and Minnie

Answer 2

you can only trust them if you are getting a recognised national qualification. Steer clear of people such as ICS etc who offer you their own qualification and certificate, it means nothing!

OU are the main source, but you will find alot of reputable colleges, universities etc offer distance learning and online courses.

think about what qualification you want first and go from there, and stick to that!

Answer 3

depends what the course is i did e citizen online course thats good you do get your certificate as well i got mine

Answer 4

I dont know really...I suppose some can be trusted but you may not get respect from employers if its not a course they've heard of!

I do an Open Uni qualification-its not just degrees...its a home study course which involves the internet a lot so worth a look!

Answer 5

Don't trust just any course, although I can assure you that open university is a very good distance learning university.
