Can I use an Alison certificate to apply to college/university?
There are Alison graduates in 195 countries, so unfortunately we’re unable to advise if an Alison course can be used to apply to a specific institute or university. You’ll need to check the entry requirements for your institution and/or course.
Can I have my Alison certificate attested by my embassy?
Even though Alison qualifications are accredited by CPD UK, learners won’t be able to get their Certificates or Diplomas attested by individual embassies.
We recommend you place any Certificates from Alison under the title of “Professional Development”. These Certificates show employers that you are willing and interested in expanding your knowledge and skills in a specific area. For example, if you are going to an interview for a position in HR or customer service, completing a psychology course will demonstrate your interest in understanding the people you may interact with regularly.
I completed the Diploma in Nursing Studies, does it mean that I am a nurse?
Alison's courses focus on basic skills-based workplace learning, and our Certificate courses typically take 2-3 hours to complete, while Diploma courses take around 15 hours. The Diploma in Nursing studies is a great introduction to nursing, but it cannot be compared to a formal, accredited qualification of a Registered Nurse, which usually requires a degree and may take 3-4 years to complete in most countries.
The knowledge and skills gained through Alison's courses can still be valuable and may assist you in your application to accredited nursing programmes, or in pursuing related healthcare roles. It's essential to check the specific entry requirements of individual colleges or employers to determine how Alison's courses can support your career in nursing.
Alison Graduates Get Jobs
Over 50% of respondents to the Alison Learner and Graduate Survey stated their Alison certificates had helped them find a job or get a promotion. These are people all over the world, from the USA to India, who are improving their lives with free learning. That’s quite an impact, but we aim to do even more. Our goal is to become the largest empowerment platform in the world. With more and more employers hiring Alison graduates every year, we’re well on our way.
Adding your Alison Certificate to your resumé will show prospective employers that you are willing and interested in expanding your knowledge or skills in a particular area. And, by making your Alison Profile public, employers looking to recruit people with specific skills, will be able to find you.
Are Alison courses accredited/recognised?
Continuing Professional Development, or CPD, is the process of continually developing or maintaining your professional skills. CPD helps individuals focus on how they can become a more competent and effective professional.
Due to our rigorous publishing review process, courses on Alison are now being accredited by CPD UK, an independent organisation. Accredited CPD training means the learning activity has reached the required Continuing Professional Development standards and benchmarks, and the learning value has been scrutinised to ensure integrity and quality. This CPD Certification Service provides recognised independent CPD accreditation compatible with global CPD requirements.
This means a certificate from a course on Alison can now be used as part of your CPD requirements (please check with your organisation’s guidelines).
