Our courses are structured around the learning outcomes stipulated in the Care Certificate, then supplemented using professional qualifications and diplomas available in our sector. Our courses provide content at level 2, unless stipulated otherwise. For example, Food Safety Level 1.
Learning objectives
When composing our eLearning courses we start with creating the learning objectives that fit within the eLearning environment.

Therefore, we can't assess at level 3, where more autonomy and decision making is involved, so the following learning objectives aren't used:
Demonstrate
Understand
Describe
To determine the learning objectives, we refer to the industry standards to help identify what the learners need to learn using the following links:
Relationship to professional qualifications
Our eLearning courses don't replace professional qualifications. However, providers such as Tend have mapped our eLearning courses to the requisite syllabus as recognition of prior learning for a qualification.
Ongoing standards mapping
