Canine Training Behaviour course

I would like to do a course relating to canine training and behaviour. I work full time so it would need to be a course where I can work from home in my own time. I want to do the course firstly to have a better understanding to train my own dogs and for my own interest and secondly to increase my chances of getting into assistance dog training as a career. The courses I have found online are:

COAPE - Diploma in companion animal behaviour and training (not sure if I would have to do a lower level course first or not? I have a degree in an unrelated field??)

Compass - Canine behaviour and training

Open Study College - Canine Science level 3

British College of Canine Studies - dog behaviour diploma

Does anyone have experince of any of these courses? Or experience of gaining employment as an assistance dog trainer or the qualifications these employers look for?

What makes the COAPE one better than the Compass one?
