We are unique in that we offer many distance learning courses not normally available at other schools or colleges.  We are based in the beautiful cathedral city of Canterbury, England. Canterbury, has long been associated with education, beginning with the founding of St Augustine’s monastery in 598 AD.

What makes our courses exceptional, apart from the content?  You get to do practical work in addition to reaching your learning objectives. Most of our courses have this requirement. From an employer’s perspective, the practical skills you acquire, combined with the course knowledge, will enhance your employable skills and teamwork abilities, giving you a distinct advantage over your competitors at job interviews.

Our online qualifications include Certificates, Diplomas and Higher Advanced Diplomas. In addition to these, we also offer short 20-hour CPD (Continuing Professional Development) online courses, ideal for those requiring a CPD  qualification in a relatively short time for that all-important job interview. Alternatively, you may simply choose an ADL eBook from our extensive selection for an introductory course overview.

A unique ADL feature is the popular option to Design Your Own Qualification. This simply involves combining various modules together (subject to our approval) to create the qualification that meets your need. An excellent option for those who cannot find the qualification they are searching for elsewhere.

You can enrol and finish at any time. You receive full tutor and admin support and you are allocated your own dedicated personal professional tutor, who is an expert in their chosen field.  Your tutor is there to support you all the way through.  You decide on how much or how little contact you wish to have.
