Overview

One of the biggest problems confronting biologists world-wide is the increased
extinction rate of animal and plant species. This is due in large part to the
impact humans have had on land use, climate and resource consumption - an
impact that is decreasing the earth's biodiversity and increasing the number of
endangered or threatened species at an alarming rate.
This level 4 diploma in conservation biology by London School Of Science & Management is designed to focus on the problems of restoring and
maintaining viable populations of animal and plant species, and natural and
managed ecosystems. This diploma course aims to provide participants with
core theoretical and practical knowledge in conservation biology. This diploma
in conservation biology is designed to provide participants with the necessary
foundation of scientific knowledge, understanding and skill to build a career in

will learn how the loss of biodiversity threatens ecosystem services that support
human agriculture such as: pollination, nutrient cycling, pest control, and soil
development and maintenance. You will learn about the core threats to the
conservation of natural resources such as human population growth and
unsustainable resource use, and how habitat loss occurs through deforestation,
damming of rivers, and other human activities. Also, participants will be
introduced to the methods of conservation biology such as the optimal design of
preserves and the limitations imposed by political and economic forces.

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.
