I had previously completed a course with CMIT, and found it to be a good way to study. I found this course to be very interesting and enjoyed doing it. The tutor was very helpful and the feedback about the assessments were clear and prompt. I would recommend CMIT to anyone who want / thinking about doing a course.

I choose to study with CMIT as I found the website very helpful, easy to follow sub categories etc. The choice of courses interested me and I hope to do more in the line of Psychology. I find the course manual easy to follow. The manual being broken up into different units as per assignment makes you feel like it is possible to do it and your not reading a big book and need to know every detail in it. It makes the course and assignments less daunting for new time applicants.

Of all the distance learning providers I researched, CMIT had the best mix of courses I was interested, price and flexibility with regards to start dates and length of courses. I didn't want to do a course that would last a year or longer, as I am not sure how my work situation will change and whether I'll be able to finish a lengthy course and I also couldn't afford a course that costs several 1000 Euros. I have never studied business psychology in depth before, so it also gave me the opportunity to see, if it s really for me. Now I can decide, if I want to continue with a more in-depth class or degree course.
