CHILD DAY CARE 

Distance learning course of 10 lessons

On completion of this course you will receive two qualifications:

Qualification 1:
Child Day Care Diploma issued by Stonebridge Associated Colleges, entitling you to use the letters SAC. Dip. (Child Day Care)

Qualification 2:
ASET Level 3 Child Day Care Award

This Course leads to an ASET Level 3 Award certificate for successful learners. That means that it is independently accredited at a level of learning equivalent to level 3 on the National Qualifications Framework (NQF) for England, Wales and Northern Ireland (in which GCSEs are at levels 1 and 2 and A levels are at level 3).

For more information on this award, click here.

The Award has been designed by the learning provider to meet specific learners' or employers' requirements and as such is not listed as a qualification on NQF. While the duration, content or assessment may vary from similar national qualifications, in accrediting the programme at level 3, ASET attests that its learning outcomes are at an equivalent level to a level 3 national qualification.

ASET is a recognised National Awarding Body.

Helping children learn and gain new skills can be extremely rewarding. Coupled with this, Child Day Care workers often improve their own communication and personal skills by working with children. What is more, the Child Day Care work is never routine, with new activities and challenges everyday.

The Child Day Care Diploma Course has been specifically designed to assist you in either setting up your own Child Day Care centre or gaining employment in an existing centre. The course covers many of the fundamental concepts that need to be understood before one can embark on this career.

With the major shift in Child Day Care from unpaid care by relatives to paid Child Day Care carried out in dedicated centres, obtaining affordable, quality child day care is a major concern for many parents. That is why the Child Day Care Diploma is the ideal course to get you started in your new career as a Child Day Care centre owner/assistant.
