Who Are We?

Stonebridge Associated Colleges is a team of bright and motivated people dedicated to helping learners fulfil their potential and meet their career goals.

Set up in 1995, Stonebridge Associated Colleges was initially intended to help people qualify in complementary therapies, such as reflexology and aromatherapy. Gradually, it moved towards more mainstream practices such as teaching, nursing, healthcare, business, nutrition and beauty.

Some of the students we helped went on to study Marine Biology at university. Others have chosen teaching assistant courses that have landed them an early promotion. As their needs diversified, so did our curriculum. Two decades later the college became a leading name in the world of further education.

Today, Stonebridge Associated Colleges has training facilities in Bude and Birmingham for a few of our vocational courses where our experienced tutors bring a hands-on approach to the teaching. However, there are over 650 online courses that can be completed remotely from anywhere in the world. With 50,000 students currently enrolled, the college is one of the largest distance learning suppliers in the UK.

A dedicated support team is also on hand to address student questions regarding enrolment, finances and guidance on the best-suited courses for you.

Today we are proud to be part of The Stonebridge Group, a number of companies operating in the distance learning field for both government-subsidised and commercially-funded qualifications.

What Do We Do?

We do not believe learning should be a one-way street. There are no two people alike and by bringing you a wide range of options we hope to recognise and celebrate the beautiful variety in people.

Whether it is a new-found passion, a change of career, a new set of skills, or a promotion that you are after, we will provide you with the training and qualification that will get you there.

We do not only have a wide range of topics we cover, but also a great variation in qualifications. Accredited by nationally recognised awarding bodies and covering a great deal of study styles, we offer courses certified by: CACHE (Council for Awards in Care, Health and Education), NCFE, Open College Network West Midlands, ABC Awards, CMA (Certified Management Accountant), Quality Register and many more.

Why Study With Us?

We believe that people should be inspired to achieve their potential. That’s why learning should be stress-free, empowering and tailored to you.

If you’re still wondering why you should enrol on an online course with Stonebridge Associated Colleges, here are some of the benefits:

Time: For many students the fact they did not have to wait around for another six months to start their chosen course was a big deciding factor. With Stonebridge Associated Colleges you are free to enrol on a course straight away. You will get access to the study materials and you can organise your schedule according to your needs.

Money: Studying should not break the bank. Learning from the comfort of your own home means that you will not only save money on travel costs and rent, but you can choose from a range of well-priced courses that will suit any pocket. Some courses are also eligible for a government-backed 19+ Advanced Learning Loan, and you can speak to our advisory team to find out about the latest promotions and discounts on selected courses.

Freedom: Online study gives you control. You decide when and where to work, so you can move freely between studying and other commitments. Plus, Stonebridge Associated Colleges takes off the pressure of any deadlines. If life gets in the way, you can simply pause your study and come back to it in a few weeks or a few months. At the same time, you can finish a course much faster than expected.

Since there is no physical location, you can study in any circumstances – at home, in a café, or a park. All you need is a laptop and an internet connection. We take care of the rest.

Student support: Studying at home does not mean you should be alone. There is a great network of students that exchange opinions and advice. You will also have access to tutor feedback daily and our administrative teams are on hand Monday to Friday to help out with any queries.

We do not only have a wide range of topics we cover, but also a great variation in qualifications. Accredited by nationally recognised awarding bodies and covering a great deal of study styles, we offer courses certified by: CACHE (Council for Awards in Care, Health and Education), NCFE, Open College Network West Midlands, ABC Awards, CMA (Certified Management Accountant), Quality Register and many more.

What Our Learners Say

Darren Savage: “The online studying was great for me as I was working full time also, so I was able to study to be a foot health practitioner in my spare time. I thoroughly enjoyed the course. There was plenty of time to complete each unit and each one was promptly marked by my tutor. The two week practical was very nerve racking at first, but we had a fantastic tutor. The hands-on experience was brilliant and I feel a lot more confident. I enjoyed the practical so much I could have stayed another two weeks. When I reached out to Stonebridge for various reasons they were always helpful and quick at getting back to me…”

Tania Barnet: “I am really pleased that I have completed my course. Stonebridge have been very patient with me as it took me longer to complete than expected.”

Sandrine Marinho: “Thanks to Stonebridge Associated Colleges, I have widened my knowledge and feel much more empowered to start a new career. The support and lessons have been beyond my expectations! Thank you!”

Nakia Andrews: “Stonebridge Associated Colleges is a great experience and of tremendous benefit to those who wish to study independently. I'm proud to say my studies with Stonebridge have helped me to further my career as well as improved the quality of my life. Thanks... I personally will recommend Stonebridge Associated Colleges. The team within admin and finance are there to help and will do so as professionally and considerate as they can.”

Tahira: “I am a mature student and never got to accomplish my dream of becoming a midwife. I have years of job experience but unfortunately it was not sufficient for Midwifery.

My personal experience from the start has been inspiring. I googled online study and found the Stonebridge website. I telephoned them on two separate occasions and was given remarkable advice from the team. When I finally decided it was for me, I made further enquiries and started the course. My aim was to complete it in 6months.

I would like to praise a few of the people who have helped and supported me through my 6 months of hard studying. Firstly, Wendy who was available at anytime and who was always there to answer any queries and was very professional. Furthermore, Gary, Jenny and James gave me amazing feedback and gave me so much self-confidence. In particular I would like to thank Emma who was absolutely amazing and so inspirational with her kind words. She has given me so much confidence and optimism, I could not thank her enough.

I would definitely recommend Stonebridge – they are supportive and promising to their words. All you need to do is follow the guidelines and you will be successful.

I wish the Stonebridge organisation lots of success as they are making people dreams come true!”
