Course
Levels Explained / Prerequisites |
 |
| |
|
| |
This course leads to the awarding of either a
Certificate, Diploma or Advanced Diploma depending on which level
you enrol at. The different levels are achieved by the amount of
course content and assessments involved within each module at the
basic (Certificate), intermediate (Diploma) and advanced (Advanced
Diploma) levels. You will be able to learn about what the difference
is between the three levels below:
- Certificate: represents a basic level
of operational knowledge with general knowledge. Suitable for
basic entry level positions.

various contexts and functions. Graduates can expect to be
