INDUCTION

I have attended my course induction today for level 4 and 5. Mike was very informative of the information he has given. Made me feel more at ease enabling me to understand more about how I should proceed with my course material and my assignments.

A good start!

Mike made it easy to understand and navigate through course contents in general as well as useful insights on how to tackle assignments and all the help and resources available to us.
He literally covered all my questions and further provided some useful tips. Thank you.

My advice is do not pay in full upfront!

This was purchased for my son and failed to meet expectations. The material is out dated, the structure and learning are poor, communication is completely lacking. The lessons aren’t detailed or consistent. In my view the contract obligations are unfulfilled and this is a business I would ever recommend to colleagues, associates or friends.

They refused to engaged in request to cancel and refund the full costs charged, even after notification of failure to meet stated expectations and contracts within a short period of time. They will try to suggest minimal time was spent on the platform, yet they failed to honour the cooling off period and now we will seek legal action for recovery of funds as a result. It is easy to review and easily see the material, lessons and structure is, in our opinion, inadequate.

My experience with this organisation has been appalling. The interactions I deem to be unprofessional, with no awareness of customer service. Having achieved multiple degrees and Masters (all studied and Non Honorary), alongside driving commercial and business training, I speak from a position of knowledge.

There is no issue on the side of the individual/student commitment or capability in this case, it is in our opinion a failing to meet contractual obligations and suitable up to date educational material.

I am sure they will counter this and assert many are happy. My advice is do your homework into the business and course.

Reply from Online Business School

Thank you for taking the time to provide this feedback. We’re genuinely sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet expectations, and we’d like to address your concerns.

It appears this situation relates to an ongoing discussion regarding a refund, which arose after minimal use of our platform—just one log-in totalling 44 minutes—without further engagement in the range of resources we provide. As an organisation, we prioritise a supportive learning environment, offering continuous customer service, access to tutor support, and resources such as the Student Forums, where students can connect and learn collaboratively. Additionally, we provide a comprehensive induction to ensure all new students feel prepared and supported in their studies.

Our courses adhere to the rigorous standards set by Ofqual, the UK governing body for Higher Education, and are recognised by universities for advanced entry onto top up degrees, including MBA’s. Each year, over 2,000 of our students progress to university, completing programmes at all levels with success. We regret that the opportunity for a more in-depth experience wasn’t realised here, as we believe fuller engagement would have provided a clearer view of the quality and support we strive to offer.

Thank you again for your feedback. We encourage any student facing challenges to reach out directly, as we are dedicated to supporting each learner in their educational journey.

Kind Regards
Online Business School Student Support.

Introductory Meeting

I recently attended an introductory online video call for a course I’m starting, and it left a very positive impression. The tutor, who is clearly very experienced, demonstrated a deep knowledge of the subject. His calm and gentle approach made the session engaging, and his thorough explanations were incredibly helpful. He took the time to go into detail about the course structure, key focus areas, and practical tips for success. I feel well-prepared and confident about moving forward, thanks to his insightful guidance.

I feel confident in the skills I have gained through this program and am excited to apply them in my career. Overall, I highly recommend Online Business School to anyone looking for a flexible and comprehensive pathway to higher education.

My Induction Review

The induction session was super good, the facilitator helps in breaking down those part that seems blurry to me, and I was able to grasp it even better.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! :)

I can honestly say that my experience over the last 3 years with
Online Business School has been both productive and rewarding. I
realise everyone has different circumstances regarding their study
needs however my main one was flexibility, Online Business School
provided this in excess because I was able to take an unplanned break
for a year and seamlessly resume where I left off with no issues
whatsoever. I cannot thank Online Business School enough for this
because the majority of people who choose this remote learning option
also have to juggle the unforeseen events that life throws at them
alongside the course and this can be challenging. Online Business
School have proven to be adept in professionally handling this aspect
of the student journey.

The tutors seem more than competent in their knowledge of the topics
and consistently provided the relevant feedback in a timely manner
whenever a question was asked. For the sake of transparency I must add
that I never needed to contact the tutors on a regular basis because
the online resource materials were sufficient for me, however when I
needed encouragement, motivation and inspiration I found the tutors
were never slow to supply this.

I would also like to give a mention to Laura in Student Support who
provided a consistent point of reference and always seemed to go above
and beyond in terms of anything asked of her. Staff members like her
who clearly enjoy their job and genuinely like students make you feel
like you are part of a learning community and not simply a remote
student number being routinely processed.

I’m in no doubt that there are reviews of Online Business School that
may be less flattering than mine but I’m now heading into the final
year of my course and very much looking forward to it, I knew what I
wanted and expected when I signed up and these expectations have not
only been met they have been exceeded, so all I can add is I hope
everyone who chooses the remote learning path has the same experience
with Online Business School that I have had so far.

Kind Regards

Europe student here with a amazing honest review!

I am a student from the Netherlands and I am delighted to share my exceptional experience with the Online Business School UK (OBS). My journey began when I got in touch with Nikhilesh, who patiently explained everything about how the school operates. His detailed explanations and supportive approach immediately instilled a sense of trust and motivation in me, which was crucial as I embarked on this educational journey.

I have successfully completed my Level 4 and Level 5 in Health and Social Care, and it has genuinely been the best thing that has happened to me this year. The curriculum is well-structured and the content is highly relevant and engaging. If you are looking for an institution that combines trustworthiness with value for money, OBS is the perfect choice.

One of the major advantages of OBS is their collaboration with various universities. Upon completing your Level 4 and Level 5 qualifications, you receive a list of universities where you can pursue a top-up degree. This seamless transition to higher education is incredibly beneficial and speaks volumes about the quality and recognition of the qualifications offered by OBS.

The support from the tutors has been outstanding. Tutors like Srinivasa Reddy Chukka and Maria Masqood have been instrumental in my success. Their expertise, combined with their genuine willingness to help, has made a significant impact on my learning experience. The study materials provided are comprehensive and the practice tests before assignments ensure that you are well-prepared. Everything I learned in the module videos was effectively reinforced in the assessments, making the learning process thorough and consistent.

I also want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Laura Dumitru, who has been incredibly supportive throughout my studies. Her readiness to assist and her encouraging attitude have been immensely reassuring. The entire team at OBS is dedicated and committed to the success of their students, which is evident in every interaction.

This entire school is simply amazing and highly underrated. It is reliable and top-notch, providing an education that is both practical and impactful. I am planning to continue my studies with OBS even after completing my undergraduate degree because I have found the learning experience so enjoyable and beneficial.

Moreover, the flexibility of installment payments is another aspect that makes OBS stand out. The communication regarding payments is clear and straightforward, making the financial aspect of studying much less stressful.

In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend the Online Business School UK. My experience has been nothing short of phenomenal, and I am confident that others will find the same level of excellence and support. Thank you, OBS, for such a wonderful and enriching educational journey.
