Mate i did the 2330 level 2 and 3 with OLCI . You will hear good and bad on them but was all good for me. Started it in july 2010 and finished in feb this year doing it around main job. However if , as mentioned earlier in this thread, you need the level 2 by march to do the level 3 then god knows. Worth ringing them though . Current Napit requirements dont call for the level 3 only the level 2 but so much changing . Looking like ill have to go self employed to do the 2356 but thank god i got in on the 2330 as this 2357 sounds an awkward one for us old gits that have to work at the same time. At least now i can reg with someone like napit , self cert and do some self employed work and build slowly to complete the 2356...couldnt have gone self employed doing this 2357 when you cant self cert. :/
