Entry Requirements

Delegates will only need to have been employed in a vocational care setting (Healthcare assistants, support workers, care workers, personal assistants etc.) for them to be able to complete level 3 successfully.

How does the assessment take place and for how long?

Delegates will complete their QCFs via e-portfolio and will be appointed a vocationally trained QCF assessor who will help them for the duration of the diploma. Support and resources are also provided throughout. Students can learn at their own pace in their own time. However, most students will successfully finish the programme in around 9 months.

How would I progress further?

Once completed, you can move onto the QCF Health & Social Care Level 4 Diploma or you can undertake a range of specialist care courses. These are all available at Universal Care Courses.

• residential care
• community and primary care
• acute health environments (eg hospitals)
• domiciliary/homecare services
• supported living projects
