Can anybody tell me if this looks like a good accredited course?

By this I mean is it accredited? i.e, recognised as a proper qualification. It is a ABC awards qualification in proofreading level 4.

I assume it is as I did an ABC awards course in counselling years ago in college and it obviously was accredited.

Does the company seem reputable?

Reed is reputable, but I have no knowledge of that specific course.

Reed is a very large employment and training agency. :smile:

It says the course is provided by the 'College of Media and Publishing' rather than Reed itself, so maybe do some research into that. Past student experiences, reviews, etc.

I've read reviews which seem to praise the course and their website seems above board. I have looked into who awards the qualification which is ABC awards and that seems to be reputable too as I remember doing a college course with them awhile ago. So, I think it checks out. Just wanted others opinion.
