Margaret asked:
Re A previous Q & A. Is it possible to print off the modules/tests for future reference please ? If no which Excel course does? Thanks
Answer:
Hi Margaret,
The modules are not designed to be printed off, and a lot of the content is delivered via video which you'll need to stream rather than download. The practice exercises with the course can be downloaded and saved offline so you can come back to them in the future and don't forget you can access every module as many times as you like within your subscription period.
Thanks

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.
