"Distinct Learning (Formerly known as Bayajula) gave me the confidence that I could finish my Level 4 Diploma in Procurement & Supply. At first, I thought I'd only do my Diploma with them, but then I realise I can proceed until I obtain my Level 6 Professional Diploma to lead me in my MCIPS. I will fully recommend Distinct Learning to any prospective student''
