Overall score
Study experience
Course notes were photocopied from a good but rather NHS-style and unimaginative Australian course at Curtin University. Decent tapes and reading references were supplied, but discussion by phone was at a fixed time that did not suit commuters. The content of discussion was plodding - I would have done better talking to another student - and the style of marking essays was not academic but geared to rote-learning in reported in a particualar tone of voice. The tutor did not seem to understand marking, and had no explanation except rather snobbish ones nor any useful clinical advice. I doubt he had any academic background in a critical subject. He dissapeared half way through the course "leaving for historical reasons" and the replacement was much more helpful but did not claim to be qualified to mark an essay, passing my essays on to an un-named person who rejected them for reasons my phone contact could not explain. Other issues were that they refused essays by fax - difficult for the large number of students from Pakistan - and refused to read large proportions of what I wrote. This was obvious from the comments made on the essay. By this stage I had given up expecting to learn anything, discuss anything sensibly or even get a qualification but found that their complaints system did not work either. I used the course in about they year 2000 but doubt it has much pressure to get better as so many students are either too far away to complain or are nurses paid by their employer to take part, and so are not easily able to complain.
Facilities
For the money I would expect a distance learning course to sell all relevant text books and maybe offer to buy them back. I would expect telephone telephone discussions to be available by appointment, for example to suit people working in the trade. I would expect conversations to be two-way. If the course claims to be linked to an academic institution I would expect it to be academic, and if they claim to provide a tutor I would expect the person to be available for the full course and for the replacement to be prepared to read a full essay. I would expect a complaints system that is capable of offering a refund. There is an increasing amount of video and printed material available about addiction and I would have expected quite a range to be available for loan as well - perhaps from Liverpool University Library. I would expect the course to be based at Liverpool University if it uses that name and not a mental hospital down the road that I had only heard-of before while listening to complaints of assault reported by clients who have moved to London.
Postgraduate life
No contact - academic or social - was possible with other students. Maybe the course organisers are too scared of complaints.
