I recently completed the proofreading and editing course with the College of Media & Publishing and found it an excellent experience. The course not only provided me with practical training and tools to add proofreading to my professional skill set, but it has also been very useful for improving my own writing projects. The flexibility of the course made it easy to fit around my full-time work commitments, and my tutor gave excellent, constructive feedback throughout. Overall, it was a positive, rewarding, and highly useful experience that I would happily recommend.

I just completed the copywriting course from College of Media and Publishing, and I honestly can’t recommend it enough! The course materials are extensive, practical, and well-structured. I learnt how to improve my writing, adapt to different formats (like blogs, outdoor ads, and paper-based mailings), and even gained valuable insights into job searching and developing a career. My tutor, Julian Brouwer, was consistently supportive and kind, always providing thoughtful, encouraging feedback. His guidance kept me motivated throughout the course. I’ve learned so much and cannot wait to implement my new skills at work!

The creative writing class was an outstanding experience that covered multiple aspects of creative expression, from poetry and personal essays to fiction and reflective writing. The lesson material was thorough, well-structured, and engaging, offering valuable insights into different writing styles, techniques, and approaches. Each module encouraged exploration and creativity, making the learning process both enjoyable and instructive. The assignments were particularly inspiring, pushing me to experiment with different forms of writing and step outside my comfort zone. Whether it was crafting a compelling short piece, refining descriptive language, or exploring the rhythm of poetry, each task provided a meaningful opportunity to develop my skills. The variety of exercises made the class dynamic and enjoyable. A key strength of the course was the tutor’s feedback. Always respectful and encouraging, the critiques offered helpful tips and practical advice that enhanced my writing. The constructive suggestions allowed me to refine my work while maintaining my unique voice and style. The online platform was easy to navigate, making participation smooth and accessible. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to expand their creative writing skills across multiple formats. It’s an excellent opportunity to explore different writing outlets in a supportive and engaging environment.

1. Excellent customer service. Jake and the team respond very quickly to emails and answer any questions you may have.
2. Useful course materials which are easy to understand and explain key copywriting concepts.
3. There's no deadline to complete the course. I actually started it back in 2015, then found a full-time job in publishing and didn't find the time to finish it. I only had one assignment to complete, so I was able to pick up where I left off...eight years later!

The course exceeded my expectations. It was very comprehensive - definitely a great investment and great value for money too.

The modules are sequenced in such a way, helping build knowledge with confidence. My personal tutor was helpful and quick to respond with advice, using his experience, with patience and understanding. Links to external reference are critical and I will definitely be using these in the future.

My interest has deepened and I now know for certain that this is what I want to do.

The tutorial support was good - all of my queries were solved within 24-48 hours.

Andrew McIntosh: Copywriting course

The course was very well balanced and pretty wide-ranging. It's made me keen to drill down further into several of the sub-topics.

I learned that you NEVER finish learning good grammar! What the underlying tenets of good copywriting are, irrespective of style / tone of voice. I've gained a fascination with SEO, and its constantly changing nature.

I wanted to learn how to write content that would optimise my website for SEO and in order to find extra work as a content writer. The course definitely met my expectations. Thank you. The tutorial support and course content were excellent.

The course was excellent overall and there was a lot of learning material which was really useful and will continue to be in the future too when I take up a job. I can always refer to the learning material whenever needed.

I feel much more confident in my ability to proofread and have learnt some very valuable techniques.

I can't think of anything that could have been improved.

The course was really worth it. I learned a lot and I'm happy to say that I created a new skill set.

Shuna was great. She was quick, kind and thorough with her work. I found the course content quite engaging and resourceful.

The course was fantastic. It was comprehensive and gave me a real insight into the full range of copy types that I will be expected to contribute to in the future.

The tutorial support was always great and the course content was really interesting.

I was satisfied by the standard required in this course.

I found the tutorial support excellent. I found the content interesting and really useful.

I really enjoyed the quick responses to the work that I sent in. I tried another distance learning course before this one, but being in South Korea meant it took a long time to send and receive work. I’m even thinking about taking another course!

It taught me a great deal about grammar, style and referencing that I didn't know. It was good that you were always able to get a speedy and accurate reply to your queries.

The content explained all the aspects clearly and succinctly. There is an awful lot more to proofreading than spelling and grammar.

The tutorial support was superb. Rachel Finnegan answered such queries as I had, promptly and politely, and her feedback on assignments was helpful.

The course met my expectations in all ways, and the administration was excellent. Communication was excellent, professional and always prompt.

The course content was excellent. Plenty of practical tasks which really got me out of my comfort zone.

The course was very informative, and I always felt that I was benefiting from the expertise of a tutor. The quality of the tutorial support was consistently high, with the tutor responding very quickly and giving constructive criticism, which helped me improve my writing.

Justine Holman was a fantastic and inspiring tutor. I very much appreciated how prompt she was in reviewing my assignments.

Overall, I am very pleased with the course.

The course was truly excellent. Extremely comprehensive, relevant and also quite fascinating in places. The tutorial support was absolutely first class. The assignment feedback from Rachel was always prompt, clear and thorough. I’d like to thank her for her expert professionalism.

I would highly recommend this course to anyone who is looking for a higher level of social media knowledge. It will certainly prepare you well if you are thinking of using social media as a marketing tool for your online business.

I enrolled to get official recognition of my skills. t's a great course for beginners, but I was able to learn a few things too. I found my tutor, Julian Brouwer, really quick and detailed in his response.

I learned more about producing content types I haven't written in a while. Overall, I really liked this course.

Outstanding! Really enjoyed this course. It has allowed me to take my proofreading and copyediting to the next level.

My tutor was amazing and very encouraging throughout the various assignments. Helping me get the most from the course and achieve a very satisfying result. I would strongly recommend this course.

The course exceeded my expectations with the level of detail it went into and the amount of support that was available to me.

My tutor Julian was brilliant! I always received a prompt response to my queries and assignments. He ensured the feedback was detailed so I learned from mistakes and further my knowledge.

This course was an excellent combination of theory and practice.

As a freelancer, the self-study format is ideal.

The course has more than met my expectations. I started with apprehension, having had little experience of online courses and feeling very conscious of the need to maximise my investment.

Rachel's tutorial support was excellent. I am very grateful. She responded to my queries in a timely way and sought swift resolution on my behalf.

The course met and exceeded my expectations. I thought the assignments were great and I feel like my copywriting skills have improved massively since beginning the course.

I thought the course content was in-depth and covered the necessary areas of copywriting. I found the SEO and social media assignments particularly useful as this is an area I am currently venturing in to in my job.

The course was a good challenge, and that is exactly something I had hoped for. It educated me well and more than I anticipated. Each lesson perfectly prepared me for each assignment. The tutorial support was fantastic.

The quality of lessons and assignments suited my learning methods and really helped me to develop my writing as well as teaching me new skills. Excellent support, the tutors and staff were always quick to reply to any queries I had and offered helpful advice.

It was a good, comprehensive course. It provided a huge amount of information and many helpful websites. The style of tutoring was really helpful and encouraging at all times. I felt the tutor's criticisms were fair and justified.

The content was interesting and varied. I learned a lot about accuracy and the need for guidelines and consistency in any proofreading task. It was my first online course and I felt that it covered everything that I needed.

I would highly recommend CMP's courses. Justine was my copywriting and social media tutor and her feedback proved invaluable. And she was easily accessible. If the College of Media and Publishing had never appeared in my Facebook feed promoting their Copywriting course I wouldn't be in the position I am today. I always enjoyed writing but never heard of Copywriting before this. I now run my own Copywriting and email marketing service.

The course clearly exceeded my expectations.

As sceptical as I was, I can't believe I could learn so much in just 12 lessons. Overall, the course was perfect for me.

Having just completed the Proofreading and Copy Editing course, I would definitely recommend it to anybody. It is affordable, well-structured and provides an informative introduction to the subject matter.

My tutor (Julian) was clear and concise in his feedback, as well as very supportive. Having qualified with a distinction, I also found the course very rewarding (as well as proof that you're never too old to learn). I am now hoping to take my new-found skills into a new career. Thanks to everyone involved at CMP.

Justine Holman, the tutor, was great – her comments were really helpful and constructive and I learned a huge amount from her. The course did a great job of making the student aware of the different aspects and giving a strong foundation of experience.

The course covered ALL relevant areas in full. Compared to other courses available, this one is very much up to date and relevant.

I particularly enjoyed having a mentor, together with the additional material provided in the modules which linked to other useful websites.

Really nice and friendly college. I purchased an online course in social media marketing for additional education within my role at work. It's easy to follow the tutors are great, everything is at your own pace no rushing, personally, I would like to do another of their courses once this one is complete.
