BUT also i dont think the CWDC envisioned people being left to get on with it by themselves the course is really supposed to be delivered in the classroom and this of course means you get loads of tutor and peer support, those companies delivering it distance learning are i think doing a lot of learners a huge disservice and of course raking in the bucks! it has also uncovered the huge lack of knowledge that assessors have! they are great at practice based work but few we have interviewed or researched have good enough theoretical knowledge in order to truly support a learner at level 3, hence the exodus, which again will eventually be a good thing.
i have counselled several people off courses till a time when they are ready and tbh is there ever a time when we are?? i had a student tell me last week she is too busy to read as she has 2 children in school and a husband to cook for......told her i was a lecturer, assessor, verifier, business owner and manager, training consultant, 3 kids, doing a masters, a husband and 2 dogs! she soon shut up. we do what we can and we should withdraw from that we cant. life is long and it will still be there BUT if you decide to continue involve your family, explain your needs to them, get work on board and plan plan plan its only a year will be over soon!

Tutu, this is the second post I've come across of yours that seems rather harsh. Good for you that you can fit all that into your life, but please be more respectful of those who struggle. people come on this website for support, not negative comments.
