    I'm trying to decide if I should buy the interior Design and Home Styling Course on Groupon - it's only €20 (from €300) but has anyone tried it or is it a bit of a scam? I can't seem to find any reviews on it or on the International Open Academy?

    A number of questions:

    - how can you do such a practical course as Interior Design entirely online?
    - who accredits the courses they offer
    - how would employers view a potential employee who has done an online course only?

    And from the website:
    All our courses are accredited by the International Council for Online Educational Standards

    Who are these people and in what light is the accreditation viewed by employers?

    Oh I should have said I won't be using it for employment, more to get some tips for design in my own house and I've an interest in it.

    I can't seem to find who gives them accreditation for this course either..
