You pretty much have to self teach yourself most of the content because the teaching quality is so poor, but it does prep you for being very independent. I can not think of anything that worth £9,250 for a 7 months of looking at presentations, as with almost all courses; but nothing we can really do other than having all our money taken off us. read more
