E-Learning F.A.Q


How does e-learning work?

After payment, E-Learning courses are available through logging in to a protected area of our website, via an individual password. Some courses have immediate access following sign up - this will be indicated on the course detail.  Alternatively, passwords will be sent vial e-mail within 24 hours of registering for the course. The course material is than available over the internet.

Each course contains all the learning material necessary to successfully complete the course, including self-assessment exercises to assess understanding of the learning material. Once issued with the course material, the learner can work through the course at their own pace and speed, logging on and off as necessary. Once you have finished the lessons in order, for some courses, an option to print a certificate of completion will appear.  Yore Learning issues a quality certificate to successful candidates by post within 5 working days.

 If necessary, tutor and IT support for the duration of the course is available should the learner have any queries, or require any help.

The course is worked through online on the computer.

What system requirements are necessary?

Your course can be used from home on most modern computers. Unless otherwise stated you will need a computer with a minimum of a 56k modem or an ISDN line for connection to the Internet. You'll also need plenty of memory, at least 128MB.
