On occasion, we are asked by prospective students about our background and how
and where we started. To put things simply, students want to know more about us
before they decide whether to select us as their distance learning provider. And
who can blame them! The initial idea of setting up UK Open College was the
brainchild of our director Bill Nicholls. After many years of working within an
education and in particular the distance learning sector. Bill gained a thorough
understanding of exactly what students were looking for when embarking on their
home study journey. After years of speaking and dealing directly with distance
learning students, it was soon established exactly what it was that students
required. The main three factors were to offer the opportunity to study
anywhere, anytime, offer true flexibility and to ensure any offering was
affordable to the majority of students. After all, there is no point in
providing all of this if it was then unaffordable. These three factors soon
became the morals and ethics of the whole company.
