You must have a minimum of Level 2 Literacy
Distance Learning isn’t for everyone. If at your enrolment we feel that this mode of study may not be quite right for you, we will help you to find the one that is.
You could complete one of our other Health and Social Care courses (e.g. Mental Health Problems, End of Life Care, Common Health Conditions etc.)
You can get a free level 3 qualification if you:
are 19 or over and do not already have a level 3 qualification
already have a level 3 qualification or higher but earn below the National Living Wage annually (£25,750 April 2025)
already have a level 3 qualification or higher but are unemployed.
If you're not eligible:
£600
The fees for this course can be covered by the Advanced Learner Loan where the Government covers the course fees. The fees are then only repaid on completion and when your salary reaches £27,295. If you don’t earn £27,295, the fees are written off after 30 years. More information can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/advanced-learner-loan
