Certificate of Higher Education in Social Care

The Certificate of Higher Education (Cert HE) in Social Care (FHEQ Level 4) has been developed specifically to enhance the skills of support staff working in social care.

This certificate explores ideas about what social work is – using case studies with children, older people, mental-health communities, children with disabilities and people with learning disabilities to apply learning to practice contexts. It also builds key skills in information and communication technologies, digital and information literacy and reflective writing.
