Give up distance learning and start again?

Hi All,

I’m a very, very mature student. I’ve been studying my Level 5 Diploma in HRM via distance learning and have found it incredibly challenging. I miss the interaction and discussions with others. I’m not one for social media and perhaps this might have made a difference. UThis is my foray into forums etc. having recently replied to a post by another member.

I didn’t go to college or university and the language the assignments use is confusing and I also don’t recognise  the elements of my job that would be applicable. For example I didn’t think I used negotiating, influencing or persuading skills in my role. I’m a HR Advisor!

I’ve completed some of the assignments but not submitted as their not submission ready.

I’m thinking of quitting the distance learning and starting again but this time going to college.

Am I mad?

I’ve recently be signposted to the ‘Nutshells/Nutcases’ books.

Can anyone suggest any other books/guides that might help me with answering the assignment questions?

All feedback gratefully received.

Lisa

  • I'm in a similar situation with my online HRM Diploma. The e-lessons were absolutely fine and easy to understand. The problem is translating it into the assignments to the required standard. Some of the things in the assignments haven't been covered in the e-learning.

    I had hoped that this would have been the best way to get the qualification but I'm really struggling and don't seem to be getting much help from my online facilitator.
