Open Is this course right for me?

This is a course that will develop your skills in selecting and preparing information to promote a healthy lifestyle and make active and healthy lifestyle recommendations to a specific individual. You will receive support with planning your next education or employment path. Whilst maths and English will be appropriately supported you will need a basic level of English. As part of the first session, we ask learners to complete a short English and basic numeracy assessment, as you will be building a portfolio over the 12 weeks and will need good understanding to complete the written work. You will be supported throughout the course by your tutor and other learners.
