    Hi

    I am doing the Buttercups it seems straight forward at the moment good website help and someone at the end of the phone if you need them you get all the course work at once with a time table for when work needs to be sent in
    you can work at your own pace and send work in earlier if you want to I looked at NPA but had problems with them when doing my pharmacy assistants course carnt fault Buttercups at the moment goog luck

    im doing the npa lvl 3 year 2 ive not had any support from them at all, 2 girls i work with are doing buttercups, they receive regular phone calls and one of them has arranged for an assessor to come to work and view her doing some of evidence based work because shes finding the coursework stressful, which means she wont have to write a report, most of the work seems very much the same though but i do think you get more support from buttercups

    i'm doing the NPA level 3 year 2 and have come to a standstill on my next unit 5. manage your work and development. It looks quite complicated and I don't know where to start.I'm not sure how many stories are required about how I manage my work. Has anyone else done this unit please and might give me an idea where I should begin. many thanks cassie

    I am doing a Buttercups course and it is very good! I get regular phone calls to check how I'm getting on with the course work and any advice if i need it. I am also in touch with them via e-mail. You have a time-table which is good as it makes you aware of any deadlines coming up.
    To be honest, i don't have a bad word to say about them as they have been so helpful - definitely go with Buttercups!
