Level 2 Understanding Autism – Distance Learning

Nescot is pleased to work with the Science Industry Assessment Service in delivering a Level 6 Apprenticeship in Laboratory Scientist (BSc (Hons) Applied Bioscience). A laboratory scientist applies specialist knowledge and broad scientific understanding to carry out a range of technical and scientific activities in their specialist discipline: Life sciences, biological sciences etc.

Full time apprentices will typically spend 24 months on-programme (before the gateway) working towards the occupational standard, with a minimum of 20% off-the-job training. All apprentices must spend a minimum of 12 months on-programme. The EPA must be completed within an EPA period lasting typically 4 months, after the EPA gateway.

This course is designed as an introduction to counselling skills and into some of the counselling approaches that underpin these skills. No prior experience, or training, in the field of counselling is required. The course is for those, that want to use counselling skills in everyday life, incorporate into their work, or are considering embarking on formal counselling training as an intended career change.

This course allows learners to make a more informed choice as to whether or not to embark on a demanding vocational training towards a possible career in counselling or an allied career for example welfare advice work where counselling skills would be useful.
