Study365 is a fantastic provider and I want to mention it. I was initially nervous to study online, but my experience with them was outstanding that whatever reserve I felt in the first place disappeared. I also want to mention the course and say how beneficial it was to me. I’ve aspired to take on a receptionist role, and upon completing this course I was able to do just that.
Johnny Barker
It was a highly detailed course. It focused on office skills and receptionist skills. I learned the fundamentals of office admin duties. This was very helpful as I was able to apply my new skills in the workplace. Even my employer was impressed.
Lincoln King
The course provided good resources which were helpful as I was able to refer back once the lesson was completed. I enjoyed my time learning at Study365 and hope further my education by taking similar courses in this regard.
Kacper Kennedy
I had no idea about e-learning or how it worked, but I was able to gain a first-hand experience on it. I have now gained a new understanding of online learning and would strongly recommend it to anyone who is interested in taking this course.
