Overview

The written word is powerful. So, it’s important that it portrays the right message. Professional Proofreaders are responsible for this and ensure that every word is in the right place. If language has always fascinated you, the Proofreading Diploma will help you delve deeper into the mechanics of the written word, and help you turn your passion into a possible career path.

Proofreading and editing are about more than correcting punctuation, it’s about understanding sentence structure and interpreting the tone of a message. The Proofreading Diploma will provide you with an in-depth overview of the area, covering nouns, pronouns, prepositions, punctuation and everything under the sun when it comes to the English language. Many students go on to become successful editors and proofreaders, working both freelance and for clients. Could this be you?

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.
