Hi,

I would be very interested to hear about other student’s experience of on-line distance learning for CIMA. What was good/bad, recommend a provider etc.

Thanks

i used lsbf and they were excellent it was the online lectures that really made a difference,

i could watch them as many times as i liked and they were decent quality and covered nearly all of the syulabuss

its not as good as the classes but its the next best thing if you are busy all the time and so on

they have some samples up check them out

I was wondering the same.  I’m considering taking an online course with either BPP or Kaplan for ACCA F7 and wondered whether anyone has experiences they could share. I thought with replayable lectures you could go over points you didn’t get first time and as a way to back up your reading. Anyone got any comments on the quality the lectures and of the support you get with either provider?

Hi. I used insaf Smartclass and it’s best for me. That is online lectures but are not recorded, they are live and you get the chance to speak with the tutor during the sessions ... that was great .... u know…. rather than sending out emails after watching the recorded lectures ... but, I agree that insaf does not provide a recorded version of the lesson ... I think it may be because they provide the lectures on a one to one basis, so if you were not there, the tutor will also cancel the lesson ! So no recording needed I guess !

Will be happy if this was helpful !
