Overview
Diploma in Disinfection Basics - Level 3
Disinfection is the process of clearing something to destroy or control bacteria and viruses from spreading. Disinfection is usually done by the use of chemicals and is an important concept that has to be followed by each and every single individual to lead a healthy and disease-free life. However, it is an even more important concept in industries such as healthcare, collection systems, water supply and public health industries to help professionals effectively carry about their day to day duties. Therefore, South London College has introduced this Diploma in Disinfection Basics at QLS Level 3 (USA Standards) to help the interested parties develop a basic knowledge on disinfection.
This basics course will discuss about the various waterborne pathogens to understand their harmful nature. You will get in terms with the basic disinfection rules that will help you get rid of bacteria and virus, after which the course will educate you on Halogen, Chlorine and alternative disinfectants. The Disinfection course will also guide you how to promote respiratory protection through proper disinfection. By the end of the Disinfection course, you will have a significant knowledge on the basics of disinfection to put them into use when required.
The Quality Licence Scheme, endorses high-quality, non-regulated provision and training programmes. 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 the Disinfection course 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 course have been benchmarked at Level 3 against level descriptors published by Quality Licence Scheme, to indicate the depth of study and level of demand/complexity involved in successful completion by the learner.
The Disinfection course itself has been designed by Imperial Learning Limited* to meet specific learners’ and/or employers’ requirements which cannot be satisfied through current qualifications.
Quality Licence Scheme 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.
