Open Colleges Reviews 

I had difficulty enrolling initially due to insurance payment. However, Anjum could not have been more helpful.

I had a wonderful experience with Nicole, my enrolment consultant at Open Colleges. She was incredibly helpful, kind, and supportive throughout the entire process. Nicole took the time to listen, answered all of my questions with patience and clarity, and made what could have been an overwhelming experience feel easy and reassuring. Her genuine care and professionalism really stood out, and I felt supported every step of the way. I’m very grateful for her help and would highly recommend Nicole to anyone considering studying with Open Colleges.

I am studying Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care with Open Colleges. My experience has been good so far. The course content is easy to understand and well organised. My trainer Debra hine is supportive and explains things clearly.

As an international student and English learner, I feel supported when I ask questions. The online system is flexible, which helps me study while looking after my family.

I am happy with my learning journey and would recommend Open Colleges to others who want flexible study options.

information was clear and explained nice and easy to understand.

I loved the flexibility of self-paced study. As someone working full-time with a family, this gave me the freedom to complete my coursework on my own schedule. Knowing that extensions were available if needed really helped reduce the stress of deadlines.
The trainers and assessors were professional, supportive, and genuinely invested in my success. The student services team was absolutely amazing—every time I called, they listened carefully to my questions and provided solutions quickly and efficiently.
Overall, it was an incredible experience. Completing this qualification is something I never imagined doing at my age, but I’m so proud that I took the leap and achieved it. Open Colleges made the journey not only possible but enjoyable.

I recently completed my study through Open Colleges and had a really positive experience. The course was well structured, easy to follow, and flexible enough to fit around work and family life. Support was always available when I needed it, and assessments were marked very quickly with clear feedback. If I choose to study again in the future, I would definitely go through Open Colleges.

Murray was a great help and he followd up with me and also helped with the whole process and it went very smooth

The platform was easy to navigate, the content was engaging, and the support was excellent. My support teacher, Zaid, was incredibly helpful and resourceful throughout the course. I genuinely enjoyed the entire learning experience.

had a great chat with Andreas at Open Colleges. he was very helpful in steering my inquiries to the course i was after. can recommend very patient with some difficult questions and awkward timings.

Great customer service!! Gave me so much information

Do not waste your money. Do not waste your time. Open Colleges Australia is a disgrace to education.
I enrolled in the Diploma of Community Services, and what I found was nothing short of appalling.
This is my experience with Open Colleges Australia, and it was nothing short of a disaster. In my opinion, the Diploma of Community Services was riddled with incoherent, error-filled materials that made learning confusing and frustrating. Assessments contradicted themselves, case studies swapped characters mid-scenario, and the content often felt slapped together without any proper checks. The trainers I dealt with seemed unprepared and unable to provide meaningful support, leaving me with the impression that quality assurance simply doesn’t exist here. To me, the whole program looked like it was outsourced or generated without oversight, producing broken grammar, inconsistent instructions, and a chaotic learning environment. For a course meant to prepare people to work with vulnerable populations, I found this not just disappointing but deeply concerning. Based on my experience, Open Colleges Australia cuts corners, prioritises profit over education, and delivers a low standard that I would strongly caution others against.
I feel, from my experience that Open Colleges Australia is not just a poor choice — it is a serious risk to the integrity of community services and the wellbeing of the people those graduates will one day serve.
Avoid this institution at all costs.

I found Daniel to be very friendly, helpful, explained everything in easy to understand terms.

Samantha was super helpful with my course application. She made everything easy to understand and was really kind the whole time. She honestly made the process way less stressful.

The learning and context was very relevant to the sector. The challenge of learning taspks built skill and knowledge. Nicola Robey supported all aspects of learning encouraging deeper learning and skill building.

Paul has been great to work with, answering all my questions and making sure everything is clearly explained. It was a very seamless process and much appreciated. I look forward to studying with open Colleges if the quality of support going forward is as good as what has been provided so far. Thanks Paul

The open collages enrollment experience was very good. Sean was extremely helpful in enrolling me in the course I was after and he made sure everything was straight forward, as easy as possible and that I was 100% happy with the course I was choosing.

Very friendly, informative, answered all my questions, and was clear and direct

It was so hard to get an appointment with the adviser for assistance.
Some results were marked as incorrect but with positive feedback on the notes attached.
Group zooms need to be offered after work hours as hard to get out of work to attend.
Enjoyed the course work lots of information and case studies

My experience was super easy and great with Ada helping me and explain the process well with straight Forward English. Am glad that everything went well than expected. Thanks

Ada was knowledgable and very helpful. She was personable and made the enrolment process enjoyable.
