How rankings are decided
Every course is scored against a published methodology with fixed weightings, and the ranking follows those scores. No course can pay to change its score or its position in our rankings.
How we make money
Some links on this site are referral or affiliate links. If you enrol in a course through one of them, we may earn a fee at no additional cost to you. That revenue funds our research. It does not influence which course we recommend or how we score it. Where a course has genuine weaknesses, we say so, including for our top pick.
Accuracy and fact-checking
We check pricing, accreditation, curriculum, and guarantee details against each provider's own published information, and we date every review so you can see how current it is. Prices and terms change, so we mark figures as approximate where appropriate and re-verify on each update.
No fabricated reviews or testimonials
We do not invent student testimonials, quotes, or ratings. The star scores on this site are our own editorial assessments, clearly presented as such, not aggregated user ratings. Any third-party figures we cite (such as graduate counts or accreditation status) come from the provider or the accrediting body.
Corrections
If we get something wrong, we fix it and update the last-reviewed date. Spotted an error or an out-of-date detail? Please contact us and we will review it promptly.
