Compared it with a classroom day

I priced up a classroom day against this online course and the online one came out well ahead on cost and time off work. Signing up was painless and the course loaded without problems. Certificate arrived the same afternoon.

Needed it for uni placement

I needed a basic data protection course before my placement started and this was the quickest one I could find. Signed up at lunchtime and had the certificate by teatime. Simple and no fuss.

Decent but the price is a bit high

The course itself is good and covers what I needed for my role without padding. It is noticeably pricier than some of the cheaper sites I looked at, though, and I felt it when paying. Videos are clear and certificates come through promptly once you finish.

honestly really good

Did a short course for my job and it was done in a weekend. Easy to log in, videos played fine on my phone and the certificate popped up straight away. Would use them again no bother.

Nurse here, the content is accurate

As a nurse I'm fussy about clinical content, and this one was accurate and up to date with current guidance. I booked the medication safety course in the evening and started straight away. The case studies reflect real practice, which made the quizzes feel relevant.

compared with the college down the road

I did consider the local college's evening class before deciding, and this online option was far more convenient for me. Enrolment was straightforward and I was grateful for the clear instructions. The course materials were well presented, and I found the whole process very pleasant indeed.

compared a few before picking

Looked at four or five CPD providers before settling on this one, mostly because the prices were all over the place. What stood out straight away was that the course list shows the hours and the certificate upfront, no hunting around. Signed up on a Sunday evening, started the next morning, and finished the whole thing over two weeks in short bits. Would use them again for my annual hours.

Needed it for work

Had to get a first aid refresher done for my new job so I just went for it. Took a couple of evenings and the videos were pretty good. The only thing is the quiz pages are a bit slow to load on my phone but otherwise fine and cert came quick.

Better than the old provider

My last training site was clunky and I kept losing my progress. Switching here felt like a relief by comparison, since the course resumes exactly where I left off. The tutor feedback was quicker than I expected and the certificate was ready as soon as I finished.

Needed it to keep my registration

My registration body required additional hours this year and I was a bit worried about meeting the deadline. Booked a course online and the access details came straight through. Everything was laid out sensibly and the certificate arrived promptly.

Good value for the money

Wanted something cheap that would tick the box for my mandatory hours and this did it. The course itself was pretty straightforward and didn't waste my time with filler. Certificate came through the account page within minutes of finishing the last quiz. Nothing about it cost me more than I expected, which is the main thing for me.

First course on the site

This was my first time using them so I went for the safeguarding course since my employer asked for it. Booked it through the site and got the login details within the hour. The modules were quick to work through and the quizzes weren't trick questions, which I appreciated.

needed it for my renewal

My professional body needed proof of CPD hours by the end of the month and I'd left it too late. Signed up on a Monday evening, had access by the next morning and got through the hours over a few weekends. The tracker on the account page kept a running total so I always knew where I stood before submitting.

still a reliable place to learn

I have used them for years now and they remain my first choice. The courses are updated when rules change, which I value. Certificates arrive the same day and the account is easy to find my way around.

The account page is what I noticed

The first thing I noticed was how neatly the account page lists every course I have completed with dates. Took the course on a Tuesday and it was ready straight away. The price was fair, though a bit more than I paid elsewhere a few years back, but I'm happy enough.

Better than the free webinars

I'd already tried the free webinars from other providers and they were hit and miss, so I paid for a proper course this time. The difference was obvious, since the modules are structured and you get assessed properly. The certificate is recognised by my employer, which the free ones never were.

Bought the annual cpd package

I went for the annual package covering all the mandatory topics for my role, which was the detail that made the decision for me. Over a year it works out cheaper per hour than buying single courses, and the reminders on the dashboard meant I never fell behind. Certificates land in the account automatically and I download them for my records. Reasonable price for what you get and the renewal reminder came in handy twice.

The progress tracker is brilliant

What I liked most is the progress tracker, which shows exactly how many hours I have logged against each category. I used to keep a spreadsheet and that's now unnecessary. The course itself was interesting and the tutors gave useful feedback on my case study within two days. Certificates download in one click when you need them for an audit.

Still the one i go back to

I've been completing my CPD with this site for close to ten years and it has never let me down. The courses stay current and the certificates always show up without me chasing anyone. Easy to renew each year.

Ordered the leadership course again

I went back to the leadership module I did a few years ago because it had been refreshed. The site remembered my details so booking took seconds. Materials are clear, the quizzes are fair and the certificate arrived as soon as I passed.
