Questions
When can I start my course?
One of the great things about Distance Learning College's courses is the flexibility of our courses. Unlike traditional college courses we do not have set start dates for our courses meaning you can get started at a time that suits you.
Do I have to sit exams?
IOE Level 2 students must sit an exam for each unit studied, UK students can complete this exam in the workplace. Level 3 & 4 students are assessed via assignments which can be submitted in January or June depending on when the student starts their course.
What coursework will I have to do?
Your tutor will set regular tasks and activities for you to complete as you progress through your course to help develop your knowledge and prepare for exams. Your tutor will continuously provide you with feedback on your work and help you to develop your knowledge further.
