Livestock, particularly cattle, have a unique method of communication called "social licking." Cows often engage in mutual grooming by licking each other, not only as a form of bonding but also to establish a social hierarchy within the herd. Delve into the very essence of sustainable farming as we unravel the secrets of nurturing and cultivating life on the farm.

In the first leg, discover the symphony of life on the farm as you delve into the intricate web of Livestock Management. Navigate the rich tapestry of animal husbandry, understanding the subtle dance between man and beast. From the foundations of proper housing and infrastructure to the fine art of nutrition and feed management, every step is a brushstroke in the masterpiece of responsible farming.

As you traverse through the course, witness the marvels of reproduction and breeding, unlocking the ancient secrets that sustain the generations. But it's not just about life; it's about ensuring the well-being of your livestock.

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.
