OfCourse Learning Reviews 26

I had a course from this company a long time ago, but recently I had received an email from them telling me they’ve taken £122 from my account. After reporting it, the guy tells me it was a test phase” email, can you believe that?
I’ve reported this company to the police and my bank, and I’ve searched them on companies house records and trading standards. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY

I have signed up to a course and started the 'so called' diploma. The Soap Diploma. The teacher was not professional, no structure, just repeating herself - I was not inspired to carry on. YouTube is more informative. I have then tried unsuccessfully to find the 'contact form' that is mentioned all over the website - and it's not there. The email has also bounced back. If someone from OfCourse see this review - please get in contact with Sally Lake. Thank you

They have me listed as a teacher on there, using my name, likeness and content without authorization or compensation. I've tried to contact Of Course several times with no response. So if you want your intellectual property stolen, by all means...Of Course is the best choice.

I have just completed my second Yoga course and found both to be very informative and interesting. It was easy to navigate and the customer service team were very helpful with any questions that I had. Would highly recommend!

Terrible company. Takes your money and doesn't give you the course. As an educator myself I find their whole set up and the way they deal with students/customers terrible. I actually felt like they were talking the mick. Doubt I'll get my money back.
I would definitely NOT recommend this site.

Try Oplex Careers instead. Same level of pricing, CPD accredited and no problems with customer service or delivery of courses whatsoever.

Update; OfCourse has issued a refund but only after I have asked for it twice. I still would not use them again. I have now asked them to delete my account.

the site is great and im learning loads but is the site down or having issues today as i can not access it

I can't access the course I paid for. I've emailed and had no response, the phone number doesn't work.

I am so happy with all the courses.
Thank you for giving possibility to everyone for self education and further development.
Life is so nice with you!

I like the platform very much, nice courses and easy to do.

Please see my original review below. Following this review I heared from OfCourse who asked for further information on my experience. I was happy to explain my concerns.
As a recompense OfCourse offered me a free course and refunded my money.
For a free course I choose Shiatsu. The tutor was through explaining that this was a taster, a start on the road to Shiatsu and that this was not a therapists Shiatsu course.

The shiatsu course was far better formulated and delivered that the other two courses I had taken.

However, I still have reservations, the tutor of the shiatsu course actually runs his own courses from his website at a cost of eleven/twelve pounds- not the reduced 22 that OfCourse,, and certainly no where near the full price.

Reading comments from fellow pupils it is clear that these pupils were expecting a therapists course, not a literal taster.
There were no printable course notes. The tutor had no way of ensuring pupils had absorbed or understood any information verbally imparted.
Basically you get some information and a certificate.

There are other far better on line distance learning platforms out there.
Research before making your decision on where to spend your money.

****original review***
Sadly a very poor experience.
I took advantage of 'sale' on courses and paid for two.
Both courses were lacking in professional underpinning knowledge on the subjects.
Contraindications of treatments were not discussed/covered at any length.
I contacted OfCourse to ask a question, their reply indicated that had no idea of the course I was asking about as they asked me to contact the tutor- this I did with no reply.

The two courses I took were not academic, they do not prepare you to professionally use the modalities discussed [I cannot say taught]

Ethically poor to call these 'certificated courses' when a] when performing my own research around both topics it was clear that some information in fact incorrect, b] all information can be correctly found and in better detail for free using YouTube and online searches, c] this experience gives distance problem based learning a really bad name. Incredibly disappointing experience.

You would think that any decent training institution would relish the idea to hear students reflections of courses via a post course review- but nothing from OfCourse.

Utter waste of money from my perspective. Look elsewhere.

Fantastic course about rewiring your brain
Enthusiastic tutor, great visuals, interactive tasks and clear presentation.
Thank you!

I had studied crossfit and boxfit courses with Ofcourse.co.uk and i can say that i had amazing experience with them, team is great and very responsive for everthing at anytime, great job keep it up guys i will defently reccomend you to my colleagues!!!

My experience with this academy has been excellent. I have taken 2 courses and am interested in taking many more.
On their website you can find a wide variety of courses. In addition to this, if you are interested in taking several courses with the same topic, they have bundles with very accesible prices.
The structure of the courses always have a purpose and take you from the simplest to the complex. Where really, you don't feel so much the complexity since the educators explain it very well.

I have highly recommend this academy and will continue to do so.

Very informative course! I enjoyed it very much👍 And I will recommend it to my friends for sure.

Amazing training site. It’s my go to site for my education needs. I would definitely recommend this site to anyone interesting in further education. It covers an immense subject matter with creditable learning providers.

I have done many courses over the years and really enjoy them they keep you interested and learn so much. I couldn't recomend them more I tell everyone to give them a try.

I was looking for a yoga class but COVID happened, and in my search I saw a youtube comercial.
I looked for the class and enrolled. Yoga has been always an interest for me and the fact that I can teach now, is really fantastic.
Thank you so much OFCourse!

Really recommend the online soap course I have recently completed and really enjoyed the lectures with Maxine. All the instructions were very easy to follow but I would have like Maxine to have touched on Melt and Pour soap bases as well even though they are quite simple for a beginner. The certificate was not great to print as it did not fit the page and I had to adjust margins for it to print on A4 paper and My certificate should be in my double barrelled name LaCroix-Aston but it is ok. I also really struggled to apply my voucher code but the OfCourse team soon sorted out my problem and I'm now embarking on the Advanced Aromatherapy course which I'm thoroughly enjoying and even though I've had the hiccups mentioned above I'm still rating the course as an excellent experience because of its great value for money, excellent tutors and course content material.

I have learned much more that what I was expecting!!! Thank you so much!!

When I first registered for a course I was skeptical, who wouldn't!? Everything I have taken to date has been in person. After 10 minutes into my first course, I was so impressed that I purchased more courses and continue to do so. The professionalism, knowledge of the instructors, course materials - it's all truly impressive.

I have registered for programs on other sites and I must say there are two main thing that puts this site above others - the videos that come with the courses and the fact that there are NO hidden fees, unlike other sites.

I can't say enough great things about this site and their courses, other then you won't be disappointed.
