Overview

Mobile phones are one of the primary technological advances of the 21<sup>st</sup> Century. Not only have they increased social networking and have changed the way humans communicate with one another, but they also serve as an effective form of personal security. In times of an emergency or when one is travelling and/or alone, a mobile device can assist the driver in having a more efficient journey on the road. However, using a handheld device while driving a vehicle is dangerous, illegal and can often lead to injuries or fatalities. It is important to learn about the risks associated with using a mobile device when behind the wheel, to avoid any of these potential hazardous situations.

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.
