What will I learn?

Our popular distance learning courses allow you to study for a recognised qualification that is of value to your work and personal development and is a great route to take if you are looking to further develop existing skills (provided you are resident in England). The courses are Level 2 qualifications, accredited by NCFE Cache, an acknowledged leader in the field of distance learning.

This qualification is designed to increase learners’ awareness and understanding of behaviour that challenges and its effects.

It covers:

  • Understanding behaviour that challenges
  • Understanding how to support positive behaviour
  • Understanding the importance of effective communication and the management of behaviour that challenges
  • Understanding the role of reflection and support for those involved in incidents of behaviour that challenges

    Government funding means that we are able to offer this course free of charge to eligible delegates. Learners will need to complete all units within 6 weeks and in the event of non-completion, a £100 fee to cover registration, administration fees and learning materials will be charged.

    Where will it lead me?

    Once you have completed your distance-learning course you will receive a certificate of completion. You will also have the option of enrolling onto another course if you wish to continue learning new skills.

    By completing the qualification, learners will develop in-depth knowledge of behaviour that challenges which could support progression onto other appropriate qualifications and into relevant employment in the health and social care sector. It could be useful to learners working in education settings.
