Want to study? want to offer something else on your curriculum vitae? but you cant afford to pay your course fees or you cant attend your local college for the hours required? This is my guide to getting completely FREE qualifications by studying ONLINE.
FREE ONLINE QUALIFICATIONS
www.vision2learn.com
To date I have completed two qualifications with this company, their courses are studied completely online and a completely free of charge! You get a personal tutor who marks all of your assignments and is on hand to help whenever is required. Catch? There is no catch, however availability of courses within certain postcodes is difficult, you may have a limited selection when it comes to choosing one to study. A few of them also require you to be in employment (NVQs). There is absolutely NO need to attend a college to take an exam, all work is coursework based and can be done in your spare time (a minimum of 3 hours a week must be committed) and if you get something wrong you can do it again and again until you pass. To date I have completed the Equality & Diversity Course and the Occupational Health and Safety course, both of which led to me achieving genuine recognised certificates of education. The complete list of qualifications available are:
OCR Level 1 Diploma for IT Users
