Efficient and speedy

Efficient enrolment process and the team were speedy to set everything up. I purchased to train a member of staff and they were able to facilitate this with no issues. They also didn't require a tonne of personal information about the employee unlike other providers.

Amazing College!🤩

I’m still currently studying my course in Animal care with this college the main thing that stood out to me as I’m doing this course is I love how I can have daily plans and fit doing some studying and course work into my day as and when I have time as it’s independent study. What’s also amazing is how on the ball the tutors are whenever I’ve had questions and messaged my tutor I’ve never had to wait long for a reply. Highly recommend this college! :)

Honestly

Honestly, the Association of Learning is a strict and standard organization, especially with its no-plagiarism policy and strict referencing rules, which make you want to study hard to pass every unit. I am starting my RQF 4 now, as I have completed RQF 3 in adult care. The Association of Learning team is always ready and happy to answer any queries I have, which makes me feel safe and supported.

I wouldn’t advise starting at all

I wouldn’t advise starting at all. The system seems designed to prevent completion. Plagiarism accusations are common, and any attempt to ask for clarification is met with aggressive and threatening correspondence.

Hi Ola,

Thanks for your feedback.

If your work has been flagged by our system for plagiarism, this will be for one of several reasons, eg:

- You haven't referenced your work correctly (eg pasting quotations from another source while not crediting that source)
- You've copied someone else's work/research
- You've generated your work using AI.

We have a strict zero-tolerance policy when it comes to AI and plagiarism usage.

If any of these are found in your work, it will be referred back to you for correction, and in repeated cases may result in withdrawal from the course.

Using someone else’s work without giving them credit is called plagiarism, and it’s a serious form of academic malpractice.

We don't have a student on our system with your name, so if you'd like to drop us a message with your details we'd be happy to give you more info.
