Human Growth and Development in Social Care

Humans, like any other living species, go through various stages of growth throughout their lives. We come into the world as newborns and hopefully live a full life, well into old age.

During this time, we transition from childhood to adulthood. With each stage of growth presenting its own developmental challenges, both physically and mentally.

If you’re fascinated by human behaviour and want to better understand why we think, act and feel the way we do at different stages in life, this course is for you. This Level 3 Human Growth and Development in Social Care online course allows you to explore human development in fine detail.

You will learn all about growth from an early age. Looking at everything from a child’s physical and cognitive development to the way they process language, communicate and explore their emotions.

You will examine theories around how we learn, the importance of objects in interpersonal relationships and the different bonds between people.

In addition to this, you will gain a detailed understanding of the social factors that can affect development. From the way disability impacts families to the effect society’s prejudices and stereotypes has on the elderly.

You will also explore how all of the above relates to social care. So you have a better understanding of how social services can cater to the need of individuals that require support from the system.

Level 3 Human Growth and Development in Social Care Certificate of Achievement

The course has been endorsed under the Quality Licence Scheme. This means that learndirect has undergone an external quality check to ensure that the organisation and the courses it offers, meet defined quality criteria. The completion of this course alone does not lead to a regulated qualification* but may be used as evidence of knowledge and skills gained. The Learner Unit Summary may be used as evidence towards Recognition of Prior Learning if you wish to progress your studies in this subject. To this end the learning outcomes of the course have been benchmarked at Level 3 against level descriptors published by Ofqual, to indicate the depth of study and level of demand/complexity involved in successful completion by the learner.

The course itself has been designed learndirect to meet specific learners’ and/or employers’ requirements which cannot be satisfied through current regulated qualifications. The Quality Licence Scheme endorsement involves robust and rigorous quality audits by external auditors to ensure quality is continually met. A review of courses is carried out as part of the endorsement process.

The Quality Licence Scheme is part of the Skills and Education Group, a charitable organisation that unites education and skills-orientated organisations that share similar values and objectives. With more than 100 years of collective experience, the Skills and Education Group’s strategic partnerships create opportunities to inform, influence and represent the wider education and skills sector.

We are committed to helping employers, organisations and learners cultivate the relevant skills for learning, skills for employment, and skills for life.

Our knowledge and experience of working within the awarding sector enables us to work with training providers, through the Quality Licence Scheme, to help them develop high-quality courses and/or training programmes for the non-regulated market.

*Regulated qualification refers to those qualifications that are regulated by Ofqual / CCEA / Qualification Wales
