Overview

Have you ever watched a good crime drama and imagined what it would be like to be involved in catching the culprit? Perhaps you’ve wondered what drives people to commit the crimes we read about in the news? If so, this is the course for you. Whether it’s Ted Bundy or Pablo Escobar, every criminal will have a mindset, a modus operandi, a motive… and a criminal psychologist will delve deep into these facets in an effort to understand and apprehend them.

On this level 3 course, you’ll delve into theories of criminal behaviour, examining how social and biological factors can impact the propensity to offend. You’ll delve into the vital role that ear and eyewitnesses play in criminal trials, as well as what can improve its accuracy. You’ll discover how juries reach their decisions, and the factors that can affect the outcome of a trial. Moving on, you’ll take a look at the psychological causes of and theories surrounding crimes such as rape and domestic violence, and most importantly, you’ll examine the impact that crime can have upon the victim, and how reoffending can be prevented.

Designed to offer flexibility, this course allows you to study in your own time, at your own pace – a perfect option to fit into other commitments and schedules.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
