Advantages: Quick browse of University and College courses

Disadvantages: Can't find part-time courses, Can't respond to e-mails, Can't find Online Courses

The learn direct web page advertises a friendly helpful service, but when I contacted them they were not helpful whatsoever! Firstly I used their search service to look for a part-time course with a qualification on web design, dreamweaver, cgi, perl and flash - only to find all the courses that came up were all full time courses in colleges and universities which I could not afford to go to, mainly because I would have had to move home, quit my job just to do the course.

I wanted a course to do (online) where I could do it in-between shifts in my work!

I then used the e-mail service to try and find out about courses (part-time / online) that they did say they had available but I could not find them. From this I got an e-mail in return stating that they could not do anything for me by e-mail and I was to phone them ???

Puzzling isn't it, if they cant fit my description of course by e-mail, how are they going to manage over the phone??

From this I gave up with them and started looking elsewhere to try and find the courses I wanted to do.

From this experience, Learn direct have only put the prospectus from all colleges and universities online, so if you want to learn something LEARN DIRECT and contact the universities and colleges in your area to get a better description of the courses available to you

Perhaps it isnt entirely clear on their site, but Learndirect has two main operations

- firstly is the advice on finding a course anywhere in the UK

- secondly, their own courses (and there are over 600 of them), which a majority are studied online, and there are web-design courses.

I think you where getting the two mixed up?

That's awful. If you have to call them to get help or information then what's the use of website.
