    loved this course. I feel I could start my own business if I choose to but I prefer working for a company that is already established.

    I found this course easy to understand and follow and found it highly useful that I could pick it up and leave it as I wished so I could fit it in around my life.
    I am currently scouring the internet and papers and phoning companies in order to find myself employment with in this field of work.

    I cannot thank this company enough for enabling me to fulfil a life dream of working with animals.

    Very well organised via Modules. It was extremely helpful. I learned a lot of new and interesting things.
    I especially liked those modules with 'homework' at the end. It might be better if every module has some extra tasks for practice.

    This was the first online course I’ve funded myself and I was apprehensive as you don’t really know what you’re going to get!

    However, I’m happy to report that this course has given me a really good grounding in Child Psychology and has whet my appetite to pursue some of the content in more detail under my own steam.

    When I had questions, the Support Team’s responses were lightning fast and reassuring and for the fee paid and the experience I’ve had this has been great value for money and a firm foundation on which to build in the future.

    Thank you New Skills Academy!

    The course is informative and easy to follow. I especially liked the history tips given throughout the course.

    I have included the payroll Diploma course to add another skill set to my CV and being self employed and in the mature bracket it is good to keep yourself updated on all new legislation. I also liked the option of returning to complete modules in your own time to fit in around work commitments.

    An excellent course with up to date thinking based on good research about canine behaviours. I particularly liked the style of teaching. Suitable for all levels and had just the right touch.

    I found it stimulating, encouraging and above all, not patronising. It will be very helpful to me on my road as an animal Reiki therapist working with a wide variety of breeds in a rescue centre. I am now much more aware of calming signals and subtle signals that the dog is ready to accept contact.

    I would recommend it to anyone wanting to enhance their understanding and communication with dogs.

    I started this course as it is a keen interest of mine; as someone who worked as an office manager and administrator for large Estate Agents in London, I wanted to tighten my skills. I was not disappointed! There are a huge range of information; from dealing with aspects of marketing to legalities and a lot of reading. It was very easy to access and very thorough. I would recommend anyone looking to start in the industry, have an interest in property or simply want to brush up on knowledge and skills. I was very pleased overall with the course, and will recommend new skill academy to my friends.
