This is a practical, work-related course. It introduces students to the employment area of health and social care and provides a good basis for them to go onto a more advanced work-related qualification. The course is equivalent to two GCSEs, grades A*-C and may be studied in conjunction with any of the other Level 2 BTEC Certificates, eg Children's Care, Learning and Development, and GCSEs. Specialist units enable them to study a particular area in depth. The units are Communication; Vocational Experience in a Health or Social Care Setting; Ensuring safe environments in Health and Social Care and The Impact of Diet on Health. Students are required to complete two periods of work experience in two different health and social care settings as part of this course. All units are assignment based and are assessed and graded. One overall grade for the qualification is awarded.
