Description

Promoting Equality and Diversity

Equality is simply defined as the state of being equal; in terms of employment and

the provision of services it can be seen as attempting to achieve a level playing field.

To give people equal rights, equal opportunities and equal status we have to identify

and overcome barriers that put some people at a disadvantage.

‘Equal’ does not mean ‘the same’ and it’s important that you appreciate the

difference. If you treated everybody the same you would be failing to provide

appropriate, person-centred care. Employers who treat all staff the same may feel

they are being fair but they are likely to be discriminating against some and depriving

them of equal opportunities.

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. If you work in certain professions or for certain companies, your employer may require you to complete a number of CPD hours or points, per year. You can find a range of CPD courses on Reed Courses, many of which can be completed online.

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.
