We are recommended to would-be learners by many organisations including:

• learndirect,
• Connexions,
• the British Council,
• libraries, and careers centres.

Every week we are contacted by more than 150 people who are looking for a high-quality distance learning course.

The ODL QC website receives more than 250 visitors every day.

The ODL QC website and publications give accredited providers high quality advertising under the auspices of the quality body for open and distance learning.

ODL QC provides that reassurance.

We explain to enquirers that:

• ODL QC accredited providers have proved their excellence in a thorough assessment,
• and meet the national Standards for Open and Distance Learning.
• We can therefore Guarantee the service they provide.

• we cannot vouch for the quality of their provision;
• and we cannot assist learners who have difficulties when studying with them.
