| ""I have really enjoyed this course and would recommend it to anyone who is thinking of entering the world of web design. The course teaches you the practical basics of web design in easy to follow lessons. WebStart was exactly what I was looking for as a starting point to my studies of website design."
As for the tutors, Ian and Andrew were excellent. I didn’t really contact them much during the early part of the course, but nearer the end (especially whilst I was working on my final assignment) I emailed them a lot. They always responded quickly and were always very friendly and helpful. Most importantly the advice and explanations Ian and Andrew offered was always clear and easy to follow. I’m very grateful to them both for their help and support.
I’m looking forward to my continuing studies of web design with UK Open Learning.

Apart from being an MBA and working on huge projects, my work required me to formally qualify on Project management, in my own spare-time, as a result of which I chose UK Open Learning. Right from my first call, Shaun went that extra-mile to help me out decide the course. The affordable material was fantastic and would suit every distance-learning candidate of all levels. The simplicity of the content (books and the user-friendly CDs), along with their strenuous internal tests, totally widened my knowledge of Projects earning me a Distinction. The tutor was excellent and stimulated greater interests in the subject. The ASET certificate was equally appreciated at work. I wont hesitate to recommend Shaun's UK Open learning for a good personal and academic development. K.Ram. Reading." Kaarthik Ram, Reading. Email |
