Understanding the diverse ways in which people learn is useful for a variety of professionals. Included in this are individuals who live with conditions which can be grouped as learning difficulties. The challenges involved in interacting with these individuals are as diverse as the individuals themselves. This course will introduce learners to how individuals with learning difficulties are diagnosed, supported and are affected by their conditions. We would recommend this course to any learners who are interested in working or studying in the fields of social work, sociology, psychology, and for learners who are caring for loved ones.
Study for the course takes place in an online virtual learning environment (VLE) where you can study at any time and at your own pace. We ask that learners complete their courses within the given timeframe and that as a broad average most courses can take approximately 6-8 hours per week to complete. However, timeframes are flexible on a person-by-person basis should any learners require reasonable adjustments to their study plans.
