The course is broken down into 1 individual modules. Each module takes between 20 and 90 minutes on average to study. Although you are free to spend as much or as little time as you feel necessary on each module, simply log in and out of the course at your convenience.

I decided to take this course to help me understand my 8 year old son with ADHD and ASD.

I managed to join the course and find the site with ease and after making my payment it was easy to start to find my documents and download my test sheets after the relevant modules.

I found other links which I am yet to explore further and can see me contacting a few of the organisations mentioned. I now am to put some strategies to the test.

The information was useful and I learnt a lot and got a certificate at the end. Thank you.

This course has been such a great help in my new career path as a PA. When I was job hunting before, I was having no luck, however now I have interested daily for PA roles all because of my new qualification. Easy to use at my own pace. Thanks!

Natasha Brinn

The course was very useful. It covers everything you need starting from the introduction to the comments. Everything was explained in a way to understand easily each one module of it. I really liked the pivot table module.

It is so helpful, don’t know how I lived until now without it at work. It is just amazing. I am so glad that I started the course and I am proud of myself that I did it in a such a short time.

Thank you for this. Can’t wait to start the next one – intermediate level! Hopefully I will pass it. And who knows – maybe after that I will pass the advanced one.

This short course about dyslexia is well worth the money. I am a fully qualified dyslexia specialist who teaches full time. I saw this course and thought it would be a good idea to ensure my knowledge and strategies were current. This course is thorough, packed with facts and useful interventions and is easily manageable. It fulfils its brief and would be extremely useful to teachers and TAs working in school who wish to increase their knowledge of SpLD and how to support children effectively. The course reinforces prior knowledge and gives food for thought and discussion. The time indicators for each session are reasonably accurate and allow you to plan your studying and feel that the course is manageable around other commitments. There are some points which feel incomplete or slightly simplified but one can always find further literature and articles to extend one's understanding. I recommend this course.

Absolutely amazing course.. I had so much fun learning with New Skills Academy. This course was so informative, set out really well and I learned so much. It was great that with two young children under 3, I still managed to learn and pass my course that I’m so happy about.

Also fantastic that for a small fee I am having my certificate sent out to me which is a great option for me. All that’s left for me to do now is practice practice and practice. New Skills Academy have given me the confidence to start my venture as a Face Painter. Thank you so much. Amy xx

The course is full of interesting and useful information to know more about garden design and maintenance.

All the modules are easy to understand and gave me strong basics and confidence to start my own garden design business. Also I found the course very interactive, with images to illustrate the modules, garden design plans examples... so I could really visualise what was meant in each module.

Considering the online aspect, I found the website very easy to use and I appreciated the fact that I could keep a trace of my course by downloading the modules on my own laptop.
