Submitting Tests
Throughout your course you will be required to submit tests to your tutor for marking, usually, there is a test that will need to be completed after each lesson. Once you have submitted a test for marking, you will normally receive feedback from your tutor within 2-3 working days. This will be sent to the e-mail address you registered with. If you have not heard from your tutor after this period please contact the College.
IMPORTANT: Although you can submit as many assignments as you like at once, all assignments MUST be submitted in numerical order. Assignments will not be marked unless ALL previous assignments have been submitted first.
If you would like to email your tutor, you can do so by emailing [email protected]. Please include your student Reference No. and your tutor’s name in the subject header. Your tutor is called Jill Edwards. Tutors will respond within 48 – 72 hours of receiving an e-mail.
