What our past students said:

“It was very nice studying with Academy of York until I completed my course thank you alot guys.”

Nthabiseng Ntlhabane

“It was very informative, A.O.Y made it possible with facilitators available to assist whenever you needed and I could do it in my own time and pace. I’ve been working as a HS officer for almost 3 years with no certificate, with this certificate I can now be more confident in my position.”

Lillian Duvenage

“At first it was not really easy, I was really disappointed when my first assignment was not yet competent. I didn’t quit, because my student advisor/motivator, encouraged me not to lose hope. I submitted my assessment again, and I did well. I’m proud of myself and I can’t wait for the graduation.”

Makgotso Motlokoa

“The course gave me more knowledge about project management in my current position at work. I could study in my own time and I could pay my studies off monthly, where with other institutions you must pay the whole course before you start the course.”

Gerald Martin

”I was fairly clueless of  what I was getting myself into by agreeing to do correspondence studying. My fanatical support coach was very patient, supportive and encouraging even when I did not reach deadlines on time and on days when I wanted to give up, I was treated with respect and courtesy. The experience was overwhelmingly good. Thank you, Academy of York.”

Boitumelo Letlhake

“It was absolutely great. The journey was made easier with the support and understanding I got from the institution”

Martha Letshabo

“Study Material easy to understand. Everyone very helpful and friendly. Thank you!”

Jacky Kritzinger

”A.O.Y is an excellent College, for one who is really serious about making a difference in their lives. I would like to thank all fanatical support team memebers who have been of help in this journey. Thank you”

Daimond Chishimba

“I really enjoy every second of it. With the help of Mr Benjamin, such an awesome person.

I gained confidence and I’m grateful”

Markham Kamfer

“In my time with Academy of York, I have been more than impressed. When I needed feedback urgently on a query, AOY quickly emailed me back with an answer. I am grateful for all you have done and the great way I was treated.
