Starting Diploma Online 2019
Posted: Thu Nov 15, 2018 1:00 am
Hi all!
I am starting my Diploma next year online and have enrolled with Inspire Education. I read a lot of mixed reviews about several of the more budget friendly online institutions offering the course and decided to go with Inspire in the end. Not sure what to expect but keeping an open mind and prepping myself mentally already so I don't fizzle out after the "honeymoon phase" ends and I potentially and left facing challenges in the modules with lack of support etc.
Anyway, just wanted to gauge how long other students have taken to complete their course online? Is 1 year realistic considering I have no dependants, most likely just working work part time hours and am otherwise diligent with studies and completing the work?
I've done two years of uni in the past with no problems but really struggled to stay on top of the work for an online Cert 4 in PT I started earlier this year and had to drop. (I was working two jobs at the time so free time was lacking).
I tend to be pretty hard on myself so I don't want to set unrealistic goals/expectations only to set myself up for failure. I'm going into this with the mindset that I'll be very much on my own for the majority and not to expect a whole lot of support from the provider.
Any input would be great!
Thanks
