Overview

Do you know that you can pay for this course using the government-backed 24+ Loan? The UK Government introduced 24+ Advanced Learning Loans to help learners, aged 24 and over, in further education to pay the college or training organisation fee. Getting a Loan doesn’t depend on your household income and there’s no credit check. You won’t have to pay anything back until you’re earning over £21,000 a year. Once you earn over this amount you pay back 9% of the earnings you receive above this figure.

The NVQ Level 3 Diploma for the Children and Young People's Workforce Course is aimed at individuals working or looking to pursue higher education in the children and young people's workforce.  With our approach, you will have the opportunity achieve 60 credits instead of the normal 58 credits which is the entry requirement most UK Universities for a Social Work degree. The qualification will confirm knowledge, skills and competence for those working children across all social care settings, including residential settings, primary care environments, domiciliary services, day services and supported living.

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.
