Ideal If:
You'll Learn:
You'll Love:
Learning is completed at the students own pace and at such a way to make it relevant to their place of work so they can identify with scenarios and situations. Learners will also find the training will improve their understanding of dementia and how to work with / look after someone with dementia. Previous earners have said it has improved their understanding of how someone with dementia experiences the world and therefore makes it easier to understand and interpret behaviour and respond appropriately.
You'll Progress:
You'll Need:
The modules are delivered individually over the 28 weeks and will require commitment outside of the class as there is an assignment to submit for each module. Ideally students should have computer access and basic IT skills.
Terms & Conditions
Students will be required to comply with SERC's Terms & Conditions of study.
We strive to ensure the description of courses on SERC's website and in publications is accurate. However, for various reasons there may be occasions when the College may need to change arrangements or be unable to deliver classes due to circumstances such as reduced funding. If there are insufficient numbers applying for a course it may not be viable to deliver the class.
