Both I and a friend are (were) doing the web entrepreneur course. I did have to wait quite a while for a place ...you get a tutor from a local college. but to be honest I stopped half way through because although the course is detailed. I found the write ups very very tedious.
it was the computer version of detailed explinations of making a cup of tea : not got cup, filled kettled, waited for kettle to boil etc but rather walked over to kettle, lifted kettle up, placed one hand on kettle lid, lifted lid, put lid down, walked kettle over to tap
.....yes I think you get the idea. I really didn't mind doing the tasks & providing screenprints but that level of explanation got really annoying and by the time I got to the web page building part just the idea of writing pages and pages of stupid details put me off wanting to continue.
Now doing an OU course instead !!! :j0 -
