Level 2 Extended Diploma in Health and Social Care

This programme is designed to help you move toward a Level 3 qualification, which can lead to advanced jobs or apprenticeships.

You can finish with a Level 2 qualification and get a skilled job at the end of the course but progressing to Level 3 will give you more career choices and improve your future earning potential. It also opens doors to further studies, like Higher Education and Higher or Degree Apprenticeships. These can lead you from advanced technician or supervisor roles at Level 3 to management or professional status as you continue studying.

To join this programme, you’ll need the equivalent of 4 GCSEs at grade 3, ideally including English and maths.

Assessment is through completing a portfolio of work and work placements.

You can progress into a wide range of opportunities in the health and social
care sectors. This includes:

• Progress onto a relevant Level 3 qualification to advance your skills
  


• Enter a Level 3 relevant apprenticeship


• Start your career in a wide range of entry-level health and social care
  roles
