Having not been in any formal education for over 15 years, Mark has been a great tutor and really helped ease learners in at the start of the CIPD L5 qualification. He is patient, able to reword things to support a lot of different learners at once and overall, very likeable. Unfortunately, Avado have really messed up. They state upon starting the course that you'll get your results for each Module before Monday at 1pm if you submit your assignment by 10am the week before. So it's a 1 week SLA. Since the Christmas break where no marking at all was done for 11 working days, they have not been able to catch up and even half way through February, modules are taking 2 weeks to be marked. The problem with the way it works is that they only allow you access to one module at a time and each module opens the day of the deadline for the module before. That means if you fail (refer) on anything and you need to redo it, you need to balance that with learning a new module at the same time, with whatever else you have going on (personal life, work etc). Many of us submit 2 weeks early to allow 1 week for marking and one to resubmit if needed and their delays have prevented allowing ourselves that time for 2 consecutive modules now. They are sending the same copy and paste message every week about receiving a 'high volume of assessments to mark' but they operate on a cohort system meaning they know exactly how many assessments to expect!I wouldn't recommend them for this reason.
