Overview

Diploma in Chlorination - Level 4 & Diploma in Modern Disinfection - Level 4

Get 2 Related Qualifications Relevant to Several Industries!

Chlorination and modern disinfection are subjects that are relevant to several industries such as water treatment, environmental science, water resources, sanitary engineering and more. This bundled course offer will help you improve your employability across multiple industries.

Chlorination is the process of adding chlorine or hypochlorite to achieve various objectives. The most widely used chlorination type is water chlorination, where chlorine is added to water in order to kill the bacteria and microbes present there. Although the process of chlorination might sound simple, it requires extensive knowledge and skills to handle the chemicals and to administer the process effectively. Therefore, this Diploma in Chlorination – Level 4 has been developed to help you improve these skills and knowledge to get into or progress within the water treatment, environmental science, water resources, or any other related industry.

This Ofqual regulated course will take you through the whole history of chlorination. You will learn about chlorination, along with the basics of chlorine, chemistry of chlorination and the byproducts of chlorination. This course will also enlighten you about the importance of disinfecting water, the essentials of disinfection and disinfection byproducts. The course will not only teach you about the chlorination process, but also educate you about the chlorine exposure limit, chlorination equipment requirement and chlorine health hazards to help you administer the process safely.

Chlorination is one of the most modern forms of water disinfection. However, using this form to disinfect water requires extensive knowledge and skills, which is why this Diploma in Modern Disinfection – Level 4 has been developed to help interested people master modern water disinfection. Whether you are in the water treatment industry, environment science industry, sanitary engineering industry or environmental engineering industry, this course is all you need to get up to speed with chlorination in no time.

This comprehensive course will thoroughly brief you about chlorination, the importance of chlorination in water disinfection and the history of chlorination to get you started. You will get to explore the fundamental basics of the chemistry of chlorination and the byproducts of chlorination to understand how it works, followed by modules that will provide insights into the disinfection essentials and disinfection byproducts.

This course focuses on improving your knowledge about oxidation chemistry and the oxidising agents that play an equally important role in disinfection. You will also get to learn about the different water disinfection methods, waterborne pathogens, safe drinking water act and disinfection byproduct regulations to further enhance your knowledge. By the completion of this course, you will have a great grip on modern disinfection to successfully embark on a related career.

These courses have been endorsed under the Quality Licence Scheme (QLS). This means that Imperial Learning Limited* has undergone an external quality check to ensure that the organisation and the courses it offers, meet defined quality criteria. The completion of these courses alone does not lead to a regulated qualification* but may be used as evidence of knowledge and skills gained. The learner unit summary may be used as evidence towards recognition of prior learning if you wish to progress your studies in this subject. To this end the learning outcomes of the courses have been benchmarked at Level-4 against level descriptors published by Ofqual, to indicate the depth of study and level of demand/complexity involved in successful completion by the learner.

The courses themselves have been designed by Imperial Learning Limited* to meet specific learners’ and/or employers’ requirements which cannot be satisfied through current regulated qualifications.

The QLS endorsement involves robust and rigorous quality audits by external auditors to ensure quality is continually met. A review of courses is carried out as part of the endorsement process.

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.
