Overview

When it comes to matters of the heart, things can get complicated. In fact, according to the Office for National Statistics, around 42% of marriages in England and Wales end in divorce. This means that understanding Family Law is becoming increasingly important for everyone, not just lawyers and legal professionals.

The Family Law Level 3 & 5 course is designed to provide learners with a comprehensive understanding of the legal issues surrounding families and relationships. This is a Level 5 course, which means that learners will have access to Level 3 curriculum as well, allowing for a more holistic learning experience.

Why should people in the UK learn about Family Law? Well, for starters, as mentioned earlier, divorce rates in the UK are on the rise. In fact, in 2019 there were over 90,000 divorces in England and Wales alone, according to the Office for National Statistics. Furthermore, understanding Family Law can help individuals navigate other important legal matters such as child custody, domestic abuse, and inheritance.

What's more, the Family Law Level 3 & 5 course is endorsed by Quality Licence Scheme, which is a nationally recognised organisation that provides endorsement, certification and quality assurance for a wide range of qualifications. This means that learners can rest assured that they will be receiving a high-quality education that meets national standards. Additionally, learners will receive a Level 5 Endorsed certificate hardcopy for free upon completion of the course.

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.

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.
