Course Overview

Workplace learning and practical placements are key elements of the Foundation Degree Community Health and Wellbeing which provide essential experience to put the theory you learn in lectures into practice.

Teaching

There will be a combination of lectures, online learning and practical placements.

Typically you will have two days per week on campus, which will involve lectures, workshops, presentations and group work; two days self-directed learning via Blackboard (online learning platform) and one day per week practice development in your second year. 

You will have access to a wide range of IT support to aid the two days self directed learning each week which complements the time spent in lectures.

This health course is structured to enable you to work and study if you wish. If you are planning to study the course whilst in relevant full-time employment, a practical placement will not be required. Find out more in our Essential Guide.
