Good morning,

I am looking to undertake a blended learning NEBOSH Diploma course and have been looking at RRC. Has anyone had any dealings with them and would share their opinion on them as a provider?

I want to make sure I am doing the right thing before I put my money where my mouth is.

Thank you

Jodie

I have used RRC in the past for the old 2 part diploma and for distance learning Fire and Construction certificates. Mind you this was over 2 years ago or more. I never used them to the best, their offering was excellent, I thought the information and tools provided was good and tutors were available but I never really used the forums etc that were available. I would always consider them though. With blended learning you will get out what you put in

Hi Jodie,

I used RRC for the Diploma, I can't fault them. Tutors are experts in their own field chemists for unit B, Barrister/solicitor for Law etc. Their learning material is also excellent. Even if you do not study with them I suggest you buy their books which they do sell separately. You can probably find cheaper, but as the saying goes "you get what you pay for". Their are other good companies out there but their is also some poor ones, believe me I tried home study with one of them, material was poor.

regards

rusty

I used RRC for my diploma althought it was nearly 20 years ago - glad to see they are still going strong - they were good when I used them!

Hi,

As a freelance NDip tutor doing a lot of work with RRC & with many other course providers I'd say you could safely 'put your money where your mouth is'!!

OK you'd maybe expect me to say that as after all I may well end up standing in front of you delivering some NDip so it would be in my interest to do so.

As I work with both large national/international providers such as RRC & small local providers I get to see the wide range & standards of companies who provide NDip & Cert level training & you should not worry about choosing RRC.

Blended learning is a good option as you do receive some face to face tuition with a tutor rather than a complete distance learning option but you must be prepared to invest your time as well as your money!

Hope this helps.....?

Thank you all for your inputs- it is appreciated. With regard to putting in time and effort- I'm one of those people who always needs to be learning something new- I seem to get a bit of an itch for it as it were.

Thank you all again!

Jodie
