These skills are essential for anyone who wants to identify a customer’s needs, offer them the right product or service, and close the sale. Ultimately, successful selling comes down to outstanding communication skills, product knowledge and perseverance.

To be honest I was sceptical at first. There are many online courses to choose from but what intrigued me the most about this course is the number of modules (22 of them). This appeared to be more detailed than others. The reason I took this course is because I started a new role as a support tutor for a large training company. I already had some experience in working with learners who had special needs and learning difficulties but wanted more in-depth knowledge and tips to support my delivery. I also wanted to know more on the legal of side of SEN too. The course was offered at a large discount that did give me concerns! But I took the plunge and have been pleasantly surprised on how well it's been written and presented in manageable bite-size chunks. I was planning to study about a couple of hours a night but once I started I found it difficult to stop. It took me about 3 days to complete. The information is comprehensive but manageable. You can tell the person/persons who wrote this have a passion for supported learning and give practical strategies to support SEN and care about their sector and want to share their passion. Highly recommended study material. :-)

I really enjoyed completing this course, it was very informative and has boasted my confidence so much that i feel excited about moving forward with my new career.

I have learned so much by completing the course and I cannot wait to put it all into practice.

I completed the course after studying at my own pace, there was no time scale to finish it which I was happy about and the support team were very quick to respond to any queries that I had at any time through out the learning process. I love that i have my certificate and I feel very proud of myself

Elizabeth Byrne

Fantastic course. It has really given me a strong foundation to pursue my journey into event planning.

The course is concise and gets straight to the point. It breaks everything down into simple points that are easy to remember.

I would recommend this course to anyone and everyone looking to pursue a career within the events industry.

Michaela Miller

Great course lots to learn and apply very informative, as a pharmacy assistant this course has given me more knowledge and confidence to provide great services to my customers.

Assignments were easy to follow and I would recommend anyone to study a course at New Skills Academy as you can do them in your own time.

Having a certificate not only boosts my confidence, but also shows my employers that i have learnt new skills and have gained more information that is useful for my area of work.

Thanks very much New Skills Academy, I will study with you again!

I am only 5 modules in to the course but is delivering above what I expected. Content is well explained and easy to digest and I like that I can do it at my own rate and without time pressure.

I have a dace agree that covers anatomy etc and this has been an thorough refresher for me. Highly recommended. (Well priced too.)
