Quality Education:

Photo of Online Training - Legal Secretary & Paralegal CoursesWe ensure that our Legal Secretary Certificate courses are as comprehensive as possible to give you the best entry into the legal world. So many of our past students have gone onto higher education for law degrees, paralegals or have even taken their Certificate abroad where they have found employment and been very highly commended.

Quality Experience:
Coming from a legal background, where Wendy Souter worked for many years, she noticed the severe lack of training courses allowing ordinary secretaries to qualify and work as Legal Secretaries. In 1988, she decided to set up her own training company and devised the now very popular Legal Secretary Course in London.

After 12 years of hard work to bring her company and courses the good reputation they enjoy today, Wendy decided to sell the company in 2000 to embark on setting up the Online Training College which many students have come to benefit from.

Online Legal Secretary Courses:

The courses cover the English Legal System and are eligible for use wherever English Law is practised. The courses are:

- Conveyancing (Freehold & Leasehold) - 5 weeks
- Litigation (Criminal, Civil & Matrimonial) - 5 weeks
- Combined Course: Conveyancing & Litigation - 10 weeks
- Paralegal Studies - 12 weeks (6 weeks each Module).

To be eligible to study a Legal Secretary Course, you must have previous secretarial/office skills, minimum typing speed of 50wpm and MS word proficient.

Paralegal Course:

Photos of Online Training CollegeWe are pleased to offer an exciting new course in Paralegal studies. To be eligible to do our Paralegal Course - candidates must have a minimum of 3 GCSEs - IT, English Language and Maths preferred, or for mature students, relevant office experience.

This course is suitable for men and women wanting to enter the legal world as Certified Legal Assistants. Paralegals are being relied upon to fulfil many roles within Law Firms and commercial companies. Their duties may involve them working in Conveyancing, Litigation, Company and Commercial. A paralegal salary can range from £16,000 to £25,000 a year depending on level of expertise and experience.

A "Paralegal" is a legal personnel who is not a Legal Secretary, not a qualified Barrister, Solicitor or Legal Executive. The Paralegal Certificate can be obtained over shorter periods of intensive training with us.

Many students view this qualification as an initial step into the legal world. For the dedicated student, further studies can be undertaken via the Institute of Legal Executives, Law Society or Bar Council.

Career Options:

Working within the legal profession can be a rewarding and satisfying experience. Legal personnel are required within the public sector such as in local authorities, the Courts system, Barristers' Chambers at the Inns of Court, Law Firms, the Probation Service, Crown Prosecution Service or in private law firms, or the legal departments of commercial companies such as banks, insurance companies and estate agents.

Student Testimonials:

"I wish to thank you for your help and kindness throughout the course. You are an excellent tutor and made lessons interesting and understandable throughout. I have enjoyed the course and it was quite sad to finish. I am pleased to hear that I have passed but can only say that this could not have been accomplished without your excellent tutorship. Once again many thanks."
- Sharon

"Just had to give you some feedback since completing the course at OTC. Firstly, it has secured me a position as a Junior Paralegal Assistant with my firm. Previous to this, I was a legal secretary with them for a couple of years. Gaining my diploma from such as highly-rated international college has worked wonders for my career. Many thanks and keep up the good work."

Computer Reservations System (CRS) Training
Courses / Programs
A Computer Reservations System (CRS) is a computerized system used by airlines and travel agencies to store and retrieve information and conduct transactions related to air travel. Some of the most widely-used CRS systems include Amadeus, Galileo / Apollo, Sabre and Worldspan. CRS systems that book and sell tickets for multiple airlines are also known as global distribution systems (GDS).

Although CRS systems were originally used exclusively for airline reservations, they are now used to organize car rental, booking of train travel, ferries, cruises, and hotel room reservations. Users of CRS systems include airlines, travel agencies, hotels, ferry and cruise lines, tour operators, insurers, car rental and railway companies, and individual travellers directly.

There are a wide range of online and classroom-based CRS training courses. Many travel companies will list a full understanding of a particular CRS as 'essential' on their job specifications, so it is much easier to get a job in this sector if you can prove that you have this skill!
Online and classroom-based training courses are available for the following computer reservation systems (CRS)
- Amadeus
- Galileo / Apollo
- Sabre

Woodgrove Tutorials
Courses / Programs
Woodgrove Tutorials are an award winning college and a training provider of the Institute of Certified Bookkeepers (ICB) courses through distance learning / home study.

ICB's primary objectives are to promote bookkeepers and enable them to gain recognition as an integral element of the financial system. The ICB controls this through qualifications and grades of membership which recognise the achievements of its members in academia, experience and individual competence.

There are many ICB courses which range from beginners through to expert levels. A trainee will normally start at the beginner's level and take incrementally more challenging tests throughout their career, although it is not uncommon for students to start at a more intermediate level if they already have relevant experience.

The ICB qualifications attained as a result are enormously beneficial in gaining employment as a bookkeeper. Although the ICB provide the examination body, they don’t teach the courses themselves. With Woodgrove Tutorials, students receive a ‘hard copy’ Course Modules on enrolment (by email and/or post by air mail) and then submit assignments online.
ICB Bookkeeping courses:

- ICB Level I Certificate in Basic Bookkeeping

- ICB Level II Certificate in Manual Bookkeeping

- ICB Level II Certificate in Computerised Bookkeeping

- ICB Level III Diploma in Manual Bookkeeping

Students receive a ‘hard copy’ of the Course Modules on enrolment (by email and/or post by air mail) and then submit assignments online. The end exam for the ICB Level 1 is taken online at your home. External exams for levels II & III can be taken in most countries around the world.
