Currently studying a forensic science short course. Would only recommend to the computer literate as getting help can sometimes be tricky to find. However, there is a wealth of resources online to help you including forums full of people in your position. Work load is very gentle for this short course and easily studies underneath a full time job. Books are sent directly to your home to make it impossible for you not to work your heart out. Highly recommend.

Highly rewarding, but a real disappointment in the lack of recognition from employers. More universities should learn from the OU in the benefits of flexibility and online lectures. However, the OU's move away from textbooks is not welcomed.

50:50. It's skilled me and provided me with confidence to make a career change. However, wanting an Engineering career has meant my unaccredited degree is of limited benefit, and I have now signed on with a "brick" uni to get my accreditation.

Flexibility, 24/7 support. There to help and assist at all times. Depth and breadth of knowledge is excellent.
