Btw, so glad that Open Learn is made available b/c if not I definitely would not be able to undertake any courses there.
Thinking about doing one on
The role of diagnosis in counselling and psychotherapy

Keep exploring...

@globcoco @freemo The nice this is you can try out the course.

It's a shame they got rid of the 10 point courses, they did cost around £150 each, but at least I got to do a certificate in science by completing 6 when i was able to.

Courses are just too expensive in one go.

@zleap @freemo

They are! The price tags I saw were b/w £3000 and 20000...
Why did they got rid of the point courses?
Do you know if they have an alternative?
Quite a few online courses have mellowed their price due to Covid.
Maybe they did the same...

@globcoco @freemo It was when the government brought in higher tuition fees, so maybe the rules changed on what they could offer,
£20k would be for a full degree i guess, where as £3000 is per course, which is probably equivalent to a year at uni.

@zleap @freemo
yep. I think you're right.
Gosh it's steep!

@globcoco @freemo One of the things I don't really want to promote on the forum is things like this

https://eatthatfrog.ac.uk/empowering-enterprise/

Only open to 18-24 year olds. I feel anything we promote should be open to anyone of any age.

After all there are code of conducts within free software projects about equality.

So sure there may be some lower age limits but no upper age limits.

Not sure if this is the right way to go about things, but I just feel everything these days is about Young people and after a certain age you're on a sort of scrap heap
