    I'm a Technician Student with Premier and have been very happy with them. I completed Intermediate with them and have just passed PEV and completed Audit last year.

    They are very relaxed and flexible. But, like any distance learning provider, they can only push you so far. But I would choose them again.

    Premier gave me a timetable which accommodated full study of the various topics, submission of work to be marked, revision and mock exams.

    If I had to change anything, they would re-issue the timetable to suit.

    Motivation came from trying to follow the timetable.

    When I first enrolled, I received the course work with books etc. by courier the next day.

    Hi

    I studied with FTC Kaplan with a timetable like Helen. They were quite good, but very slow to reply to queries and marking test papers. One thing to note with them that if you cannot stick to their timetable you have to pay a deferring fee of £30 to have the timetable rearranged - which I thought was a con.

    Best wishes

    Wow! Premier didn't charge me anything. I should have sat both PEV & PCR in December and dropped PCR at the 11th hour.

    I wouldn't be happy if I had a bill too.

    I wasn't happy - but luckily my employer paid it, but a warning to others

    Out of interest can you tell me how much Premier Training charge. I am at Technician level, failed two exams in December taking DFS with an awful tutor and feel like giving up. Just wondered whether to carry on but with Premier.

    Thanks

    Hi

    I looked at Premier for distance learning CIMA but there CIMA course seemed to be a pack of study materials rather than an actual course. There was no mention of tutor support by phone or tests for submission etc.
