Stuart asked:

How is the level 3 course only 3 hours? When if you physical attend a level 2 food safety workshop it's 6 hours and level 3 is 12 hours and 2 days

Answer:

Stuart, many of our learners take only 3 hours, however, others can take a lot longer. The benefits of doing an e-learning course is that you can learn at your own pace whereas if you are in a classroom, you tend to learn at the pace of the slowest learner. Plus, with e-learning, you can take breaks as often as you wish which means when you are on the course, you are more focused and capable of absorbing the knowledge than if you are in a classroom and expected to learn for hours at a time.

This was helpful. Thank you for your feedback.
Bianca asked:

Is this course recognised by theMaritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) ?

Answer:

Hi Bianca, I’m not sure what the MCA will recognise. However, the course is fully approved and accredited by RoSPA and the CPD. RoSPA are the leading health and safety awarding body.

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.
