At age 44, I took a notion to start a new career, so I booked a Travel & Tourism online course with New Skills Academy.

I was actually pretty nervous when I looked at the modules as it’s been years since I studied!

I was pleasantly surprised at how well the course flowed and how uncomplicated it was. The presentation of the course was easy to read and understand.

When I got to the final test, I was nervous, but had no need to be. It was a general test of knowledge and I passed with 70%. I feel proud!

Angela Wilson

Well structured and easy to follow coursework. My queries were answered promptly and were clearly not stock Q&A responses so I felt I had been given real support.

The test at the end was unexpected as the end of module tests were self marking. As it was a timed test that covered every aspect of the course but in a random way which meant one had to pay attention and read the questions carefully!

I feel I have achieved something and will certainly follow up with another course. New Skills Academy is highly recommended as an online study organisation, as well.

Moi Watson

There are some fantastic courses on offer and they are set out in a simple, easy step by step way to help with home learning. I like how they are set out in small modules with a quiz at the end. It made it easier for me to take on board what I was being taught.

When I needed to contact someone about the course, they responded quickly to my emails and helped me solve my issues. I like that there is no time scale on completing the course so that I can pick up where I left off after a break from learning.

I would recommend learning with New Skills Academy to anyone wanting to improve their skills.

Katherine Andrew

Have purchased an online training course for an excellent price and I am very happy with the modules, presentation and interesting details contained in the course.

Andrea Berta

Really helpful course, it covers all the main aspects to become a successful PA. I was looking for an admin course where I can improve a new side of my professional career and this course had everything I needed. It gives you everything from basic computer knowledge to tips for the day to day basics like answering the phone or how to create a memo or book your boss’ travel arrangements. It offers a clear structure with all the main subjects divide in short modules, easy to study that way, and it gives you examples in real life as well as practice exercises that help you to understand everything. With support during all the course and access during a whole year, you cannot ask for more value for money! Totally recommended!

Alicia Prenda

So far I am really enjoying the course. the details were sent through to me within 4 hours, even though there was up to a 48 hour wait.

This course is very well structured and has many helpful features, such as the recap option for each module, and the summary section at the end of each module.

I will definitely be recommending this course.
