Of course it is

learn Direct are nationwide Government back and accredited

Problem I found when I did Open University was family distractions. Work etc.

But if you have to have time out  and will have no distractions someone like yourself will fly

First of all, I don't know anything about Learndirect, but it looks like they chucked everything they have got into a basket and offered a Groupon deal. This course covers soooo many areas its unbelieveable, and even for someone who has some previous knowledge on some of the subjects would take a long, long time to learn each topic to an acceptable level. If you pick a few you are most interested about its a yes BUT you have to be prepared to invest time and patience. Would be useful to find out if they provide student licences for some of the softwares required, some of them are very expensive.

PS. I have a couple of IT qualifications, if you have any questions about anything listed on there I'll do my best to come up with a useful answer  :)

I sometimes buy things in Lidl like a socket set or a solar torch. i didn't need them before but they were a bargain.

I got this a few months back

Most of it is rubbish and very basic but for £99 the photoshop and dreamweaver are worth it.

And HTML5 is pretty interesting

I was in there tonight nearly bought one of those USB microscopes but they were £30 and I'm sure they are cheap elsewhere. Not that I need one mind.
