Stacey asked:

Will I be able to work in hospital taking blood with this course

Answer:

Hi Stacey, thanks for your question. This course is more of an introduction to venepuncture to give learners an understanding of the venepuncture. Whilst it is CPD accredited and may well be recognised by some organisations we cannot recommend it to be used as a qualification to take blood in a hospital. I hope this helps. Kind regards, Active Recruitment.

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.
