How will it develop learners?
Young people who complete the Diploma in Environmental and Land-based Studies will have developed an attitude to enable them to successfully progress to work, to further training, or to further and higher education.
Learners at all levels of the Diploma will be confident they have developed the right hands-on skills, knowledge and understanding required of them. Not only will they have gained confidence in their personal, learning and thinking skills and abilities, but they will have experienced the real world of work through a variety of work-related learning opportunities.
Diplomas will help realise the student’s potential and aspirations, whether it is to enter the workforce at 18 or whether it is to continue into higher education. Whichever route they follow, they will have developed the knowledge and personal skills that employers want, and a qualification highly valued by employers and universities.
