Pauline Sheila Hinson asked:

Please am interested in the psychiatry and mental health I want the full level 6 please is it equivalent to a degree and I wished to practice it

Answer:

Thank you for your query. This course is studied through distance learning and leads to a certificate of achievement at level 4. It isn't a degree course and is not intended to be a licence to practice. Successful students though will be able to include this achievement in their CV and use it towards entry requirements for other studies.

This was helpful. Thank you for your feedback.

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.
