OVERVIEW
THIS COURSE MAY BE OFFERED TO RUN AGAIN NEXT ACADEMIC YEAR. For details, please e-mail info@kirkleescollege.ac.uk
Mental health problems can affect children and young people and circumstances in the last 12-18 months can contribute to these. By completing this course, you will understand children and young people’s mental health and the factors which may affect this. This is a self-led online course that will take approximately 13 weeks to complete.
This course is suitable for adults working or volunteering with children, young people or adults or adults with an interest in this subject. You will complete this course on our online learning platform, where your knowledge will be assessed by a personal tutor through a series of written questions over four units.
This course is classed as ‘individual study’, therefore, there is no lessons to attend in the college or online. An assessor will be allocated to you and send you an email with induction information to complete yourself. You will be provided with login details for the college VLE for induction and separate login details for the actual course materials.
You will need to have a suitable device other than a smart phone e.g. laptop, computer or tablet. This is due to the support materials being an online book.
