Grace asked:
How long will the course take to complete?
Answer:
As it is a distance learning course you set your own pace; it could be completed in two weeks but most people seem to spread it out over three months
Is the qualification graded on coursework or exams? And would we have to pay separately for the exam and/or certificate?
Answer:
Hi Alina
Please note that should you wish to sit the exams, the booking for the entire course must be made via our own website. This is because the offer on reed.co.uk and on Souters is very different.
Hi
Is there a guarantee to get a job of a data entry clerk?
And is there an advanced course after we do this one?
Answer:
Whilst the course greatly improves your chance of getting a job we do not guarantee jobs after the course.
You can do our CPD accredited Administration Course which is classroom based and will place you in a position to apply for a broader range of jobs.
Does GCSE maths and english qualification help me with this course or on next level?
Answer:
Yes, Maths and English will help you with your career and make it easier to perform data entry type rolls.
However Data Entry is one area where these skills are not compulsory so you can do many data entry jobs with only basic Maths and English
The course will prepare you for this job type in either case.
helllo, how many hours is this course, and what is the difference between course 75198 and 82203 please?

Answer:
Souters has been providing training in the UK since 1988.
Our software for this course is supplied on our server so you do not need any software on your PC except an internet browser and MS Word or similar for the later parts of the course.
Hi, do I need to purchase Micrasoft Office? Also do I need a PC or can I go away with a tablet?
Answer:
You do not need to buy MS Office to do the MS Office training. You should be fine with a tablet but very small screens are not recommended.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.
An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
