Osteopathy courses

Could you give me some recommendations on courses, been looking into a few but it seems there are a lot out there.
What makes a good course?
Thanks

If you are looking into an undergraduate osteopathy course, there are a few schools based in London, such as the British School of Osteopathy, which is a 3 year full time course or the London School. It gives a good sound basis, with regards to structural osteopathy (the manipulating of joints). However if you are looking for a wider range of techniques, which cover structural, cranial (working with the natural movement of the bones that make up the skull) and visceral Osteopathy (working directly on the organs of the body), the only course I know, which does all of these at an undergraduate level, is the European School of Osteopathy, which is based in Maidstone in Kent.

Hope this Helps
