Testimonial
Mitt Nathwani - Oxford
I am delighted with this course!
I was interested in this course initially as a parent looking for new fun ways to entertain the kids. I thought balloon modelling would also be a fun skill to add to my CV!
That said, I didn't go into the course with huge expectations beyond what you might learn in online videos, but I was wrong!
The course covered business and marketing aspects that I wasn't really anticipating and will no doubt prove to be priceless in my day-to-day job, let alone if I decide to add balloon modelling to my career in some way. Add to this the clear on-screen instructions for what can be quite a fiddly subject, I must say that I am delighted with this course!

Provider
In November of 2013, a single question was asked:
‘What do you want to learn?’ From there, a vision was born of comprehensive, high quality, and affordable online course availability. The name behind that vision was Be-a Education & New Skills Academy.
Just three short years later, this small,privately owned business has helped over 30,000 people gain new qualifications with a broad range of instruction from anywhere in the world. When it comes to online schools, there are plenty, but at New Skills Academy we distinguish ourselves amongst the competition.
In the short time that Be-a Education & New Skills Academy has been opened, we have created 140 different courses to cover 22 different categories. This means you can study retail banking, dog grooming, or even go to our cupcake academy.
Freedom to Study
Offering a broad range of course options is a good start, but we envisioned so much more for our students. We take great pride in offering out students the ability to study anytime, anywhere, and it is our belief that an award winning business would settle for nothing less. Often, people dream of pursuing a degree or certification but never find the time to follow through. We know life gets busy, which is why our customers can take our courses online from anywhere while still working.Students can access our courses from a PC,mobile phone, or tablet; this means you can learn anywhere you go. Once students access our courses, they are offered up to date subject information for a lifetime!
