Having just completed the business writing course there was a lot of information I found to be beneficial and useful.

The most useful piece of information I found was the different kinds of letters you can produce and what information to detail in each kind of letter. I had always thought that the letters had to be lengthy, detailed and boring and instead it is all about targeting the right audience and you can even add captions, headers and clipart when appropriate.

I found the course has definitely improved my grammar, style of writing and most of all to proofread my letters, emails and etc as before I would write a letter or email and never re read it to make sure it made sense and just send it off.
I  really enjoyed the module on sales proposal and was excited to be able to put together a sales proposal using all sorts of items to liven up the proposal like photos, logos and borders.

I have recently completed MYOB Introductory, Intermediate and Payroll through distance learning with Courses Direct.   It is the first time I have used distance learning and I found the training material to be extremely helpful and studying on-line was great.  I could study and complete assignments at my own pace, knowing that I had a tutor available to assist me if I had any problems.

I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and plan on doing more courses in the future.

This is my first online learning experience, and course direct made me fond of this style of study, which is quite special and convenient. The first thing that attracts me is the enrollment. Unlike at school, I don’t need to google the map first and then find the way there,sometimes with difficulties. Just one phone call, I was able to learn.

In the second place, as all the study material is posted online, I have a total freedom on my study. I could log in whenever I am ready to learn without worrying about bothering the teachers as at school. In the third place, the arrangement of the course units is well-planned. Each lesson is 5 pages long on average, quite appropriate for learners to read efficiently. And the content is new and most important, close to real life.

If some day in the future I want to learn more knowledge, I would choose course direct.

Following a number of changes in the company I currently work for, I had a change of heart and after some thought decided I would like to go to university.  I was then informed that I had a conditional offer, and had to complete this course to be able to be accepted.  I felt a little disheartened at this, but soon had my mind put to ease as I started gathering details of the course that I was about to begin.

The course content was comprehensively set out on the website I was given for details.  On receiving the full documentation, this was also set out in an easily manageable fashion.  The course content was interesting, varied and relevant to the course I will be taking at university.  I really enjoyed the practical side to the course, and having this amongst the theory was a really helpful way to learn.  I was also very impressed at the speed at which my results came back for each module – it was really helpful to be able to send off assignments as and when I had finished them because I could then see the results as I went through which was really motivational.

I now feel much more prepared to begin my course at university, as I have acquired a lot of background knowledge from this course.  Thank you very much for your professionalism and assistance in making what first seemed a mammoth task into an enjoyable and enriching experience.

I would like to take a moment to thank the school for the kind and professional welcoming which I was given. Also the prompt service I was given when I lodged my enrolment via the web.I am looking forward to completing this short course and moving to other computer course.

I have been working as a Senior Tour Guide in Cairns for the past 5 years and wanted to undertake a EcoGuide course to further my studies to become an Eco Accredited Guide. After searching for the right course solely based around EcoGuding, I came in contact with Courses Direct and there EcoTourism Guide Course. After looking through the course structure, it was exactly what i wanted to study to improve my deliveries and knowledge as a current Tour Guide.

I found the Course to be outstanding in everyway, not only for current Guides wanting formal and expansion on there education, but this would be ideal for any new Guides starting of there Guiding career.. The course structure was very relevant to Guiding and educated me beyond my current knowledge in Guiding in ways which surprised me. The course content was great, it covered all areas and fields you would require as a Guide and most importantly, it educated me in delivering tours in a more sustainable way.

What made the course so enjoyable and educational as well, was the people behide the course. The people at Course's Direct were amazing. They were always so helpful and friendly, from the office staff to my Tutor. Nothing was ever to much trouble and if i needed any assistance from my Tutor, it was done within a matter of a very short time and provided to me in a very easy to understand way. Without these people the course would of been just a course. They made it more than a course and this makes all the difference.

Due to my completion of my EcoTourism Guide Course with Course's Direct, It has given me assistance with a formal Guiding qualification to go on and become a Eco Accredited Guide of Australia and also gain Guides of Australia accreditation as well.

Thank you all very much and i will be recommending this course in the future.
