Course content
Where can I find more detail about the content of a specific course?

I have a question about the content of courses
Our courses have been written in conjunction with our Expert Partners and are regularly updated. If you have a question about the content of one of our courses please get in touch.
What qualification do I receive for completing courses?
Each module of an EduCare course provides the learner with one hour of CPD. To find out more about CPD, please visit The CPD Certification Service’s website.
How long does it take to complete an EduCare course?
Each module is equivalent to one hour of CPD. So a one-module course will take up to one hour, and a four-module course will take up to four hours. Where there is a proficiency test as part of the course, this equates to an additional hour of CPD.
