I am glad that I studied with Open Colleges and I really enjoyed the program. The program is well organized and simple to understand with friendly tutors and supervisors. It is also easy to access help when needed, which I think is great. The training has helped me so much in my field as a Dental assistant and I will recommend Open Colleges anytime I have the opportunity.
Honestly, Dorina, my teacher, has made my learning experience very easy and stress free. I don’t think I would be able to complete the course without her help. The overall course of my Certificate III in Dental Assisting was very informative and had easy access. The Support team was always there when needed and were very helpful. Definitely would do a course with Open colleges again !!
The student support were helpful and available for their students. My teacher, Dorina, helped me a lot during the course. She motivated me through the course, she was really nice.
