To help design OnDemand, we asked AAT students like you what they wanted most from their course to help them succeed. Take a look at some of the responses below to show how our course was built with you in mind. “I want to know there’s someone to speak to when I need them”

“I want a subject expert to motivate me and give me feedback”

When you’re working to your own busy schedule, you don’t want to have to put your studies on hold waiting for your tutor to respond. That’s why we’re keeping our tutor support team open 7 days a week.

In order to get the most out of your course, you need full confidence in your tutor. Kaplan tutors are subject specialists, and OnDemand gives you full access to their expertise. Our tutors will be there to guide you through the whole syllabus, so you know exactly what you need to complete and when - just like in a classroom.

You can get an instant response from a qualified Kaplan tutor through live chat, arrange a phonecall at a convenient time or email them your questions - even on evenings and weekends. You are guaranteed a response by email or requesting a callback in 4 hours or less and support is available until 8pm on weekdays - perfect if you have work or family commitments.

When you take a mock exam, you’ll get feedback so you can focus in more detail on the areas you need to improve on. It can be difficult to stay motivated when studying on your own, so if you fall behind where you want to be, you can request regular contact from tutors who will contact you to see how we can help you get back on track.

“I want flexibility, but to know there’s still structure to keep me motivated.” OnDemand complements the ‘on-demand’ nature of many of the AAT exams, which can be taken any time. You can start the course 365 days a year, meaning waiting for course start dates or finding your way into a classroom becomes a thing of the past. Some students told us that they find it difficult to keep on track with no fixed dates, which is why Kaplan OnDemand also provides structure to help you maintain progress and go into the exam feeling confident.

“I want lots of question practice, in a format that’s like the real exams.” Rather than just focusing on the total volume of questions, Kaplan OnDemand assessments are designed in a way that will help you better prepare for the exams. Knowledge Checks and Progress Tests ensure you’re aware of areas you still need to work on plus you can build your own tests from a large bank of questions, so you can focus on the areas you feel you need to practice most. The final 2 mock exams even look and feel like the real exams to improve your confidence.

“I want high quality content that makes it easier to learn” Students told us that the quality of learning resources was the most important factor for them in choosing a flexible course. We believe that just because you decide to study remotely doesn’t mean you should compromise on quality. With Kaplan OnDemand you’ll benefit from a wide range of high quality and engaging online content, all designed specifically for the OnDemand course. Created by our expert tutors, a mixture of tutor-led videos, worked examples and interactive tests will help guide you through every part of the syllabus. Plus, all the content is accessible on a range of devices - allowing you to study on the go.

“There is a really big network of support there if you need it. Even in the evening or on a Saturday morning, if you’ve got a problem you can talk to a tutor. It’s nice to know that they’re just there!” Julie Dove, Kaplan student, AAT Distance Learner of the Year nominee 2017
