What this course is about

UCAS code: B900

Here's what City College Norwich (incorporating Easton College) says about its Health Studies course.

This programme is aimed particularly at healthcare assistants and care workers, and is designed to offer flexible study so that it is suitable if you are already in work.

It has been designed in conjunction with local employers (the Primary Care Trusts and the Norfolk and Norwich Hospital Trust) and is an ideal first level HE qualification for healthcare workers in both the public and private sector.

This course will be delivered through workshops, lectures, presentations, seminars and group activities.

Students in employment will be expected to receive practical and enabling support from their employers. You will complete 460 hrs of placement on this programme. If you are not already in a suitable role (either paid or voluntary), we can support you to find a suitable placement.
