Top tutors, excellent quality of education, and a programme that made it possible for me to complete my degree while working a full-time job! The quality of teaching and academic guidance has been outstanding. The programme was challenging and maintained high academic standards, but at the same time gave me the structure and support I needed to balance university with a demanding full-time career. Being able to successfully complete my degree while continuing to work full-time is something I am extremely proud of, and the quality and flexibility of the programme played a huge part in making that possible. A special mention has to go to Nicole Faux for all the admin support and one for Joe Shami, who has been an exceptional tutor. Their professionalism, knowledge, encouragement and genuine commitment were second to none. During an especially difficult period in my personal life, their understanding and support went far beyond what I could have expected and helped me reach the finish line. This has been a demanding but incredibly rewarding journey. I’m leaving not only with a degree, but with knowledge and skills that have real value in my professional life. I would wholeheartedly recommend the programme to anyone looking for high-quality education that can realistically be combined with a full-time career.

I have just completed my Level 7 Marketing Leadership Programme with OXCOM (MBA equivalent) and couldn't rate them highly enough. I have completed 2 courses with this study centre and they are brilliant. The tutors are great, they push you to do the best you can and challenge you when they know you have more to give. The courses are tough, you really have to apply yourself - it's not something to take on half-heartedly. But if you throw yourself into it they will support you right to the end. The course materials are thorough and the recommended reading was great too. I honestly learnt so much with them. I am thrilled to have passed with distinction. Couldn't recommend them enough.

As someone who’s never been a big fan of studying, I’ve been surprised by how much I’m enjoying my Level 4 Professional Digital Marketing Certification with Oxford College of Marketing. The course is clear, practical and easy to fit around a busy schedule. The tutors are friendly and supportive, always wanting you to succeed. I’ve learned so much already and feel far more confident in my skills. I couldn’t recommend them enough!

I have just completed my CIPR Professional PR Diploma with Oxford College of Marketing, and I am so thankful to my tutor Mel for her excellent guidance and tuition throughout the 12 months of the course. Having chosen the virtual learning route, I enjoyed having the weekly sessions to keep me on track with my studies. It also gave me the opportunity to connect with my peers and share ideas and feedback. The Support team were also incredibly helpful and quick to answer any queries I had, and the online portal had plenty of useful links for wider reading and resources. The flexible setup allowed me to fit my studies in around a busy full time job and planning a wedding all at the same time! Huge thanks to the whole team.

Fantastic organisation who take pride in delivering quality study materials and offer full support and guidance throughout the study programme. I am most delighted with the quality of the course materials and the e learning webinars help to cover the syllabus in easy to follow steps at your own pace. Each session is perfectly balanced and structured to ensure all students have the resources to successfully prepare for the examinations. I would highly recommend to anyone who wants to embark on a professional qualification (distance/e learning) structure. Oxcom is the best place to facilitate a future learning programme to help up skill! I would not of passed with distinctions in each module without the highest quality training I have received! Thank you to all the team and I will be enrolling in the future for the next level of the CIM qualification.

I recently finished my studies for a level 6 digital marketing and have had a great experience with Oxford college of marketing. My only complaint is that you get a new tutor for each unit and each tutor was asking me to format my coursework in a different way from the last which was quite time consuming and had me worried at times that I had formatted the previous unit wrong. This was only a minor part of my course however and everything else was great from the platform used, support, webinars, downloads and more. I loved how it was manageable to balance with my work which meant I could stay in full-time work during my studies.

Ho recentemente completato il livello 6 del CIM presso l'Oxford College of Marketing, dove ho potuto scegliere la modalità distance learning che avendo un lavoro full time mi ha consentito di seguire le lezioni e svolgere gli esami secondo i miei tempi. Qualifica raccomandata per gli argomenti che si studiano e apprendono, questo è davvero un valore aggiunto per chi vuole lavorare nel marketing. Inoltre mi sono trovata bene con docenti e team di supporto che sono stati sempre competenti, professionali e gentili. Unica nota di cui non sono stata pienamente soddisfatta, uno dei miei tutor a mio parere non sempre è stato molto chiaro, infatti mi sono trovata a dover chiedere chiarimenti sul feedback che forniva perchè sembrava mi desse indicazioni diverse rispetto a quelle generali fornite sul compito, e al completamento non sono stata pienamente soddisfatta dei risultati ottenuti visto che lui mi diceva che avevo corretto bene il compito in base ai suoi suggerimenti, perciò mi aspettavo di raggiungere risultati finali migliori. A questo proposito però è intervenuto il team del college dimostrando di tenerci alla mia qualifica con un risultato soddisfacente, quindi mi hanno proposto delle soluzioni per incrementare i miei risultati finali, e attualmente sto continuando a studiare con loro altri 2 corsi che mi aiuteranno ad ottenere un risultato complessivo più soddisfacente! Grazie per la disponibilità e la gentilezza!
