Effective Parenting Skills

About the Effective Parenting Skills Certificate

Although some parental instincts surface naturally, the role of a parent is still constantly surprising and challenging. When it comes to raising children, knowledge, information and preparation are key. This online distance learning course has been designed specifically to help expectant or current mothers and fathers hone their parenting skills and discover all they need to know about child behaviour.

Comprised of six informative and engaging distance learning modules, this home learning qualification should be the first port of call for anyone who is training to be a parent. Candidates will discover the importance of active listening, communication and confrontation, all the while learning how to put these skills into practice.

Who should study this course?

This course has been specifically designed for expectant or inexperienced parents who are looking to broaden their knowledge and develop their parenting practice. The course may also come in useful for people who may not be parents, but spend a lot of time around children.

Students do not need any prior qualifications before they enrol on this effective parenting course. At learndirect, all we ask is that our learners are self-motivated and have the drive to embark upon a home study qualification.

What happens after the course?

Although no one can offer fool proof advice on how to be a good parent, this course will equip students with the fundamental knowledge they need to get started on their parental journey. Unlike some other vocational courses, this course is not geared towards a specific career. On successful completion of the qualification, students can set about putting their new found skills into action within their families.

I had a fantastic experience purchasing my online course today. I was attended to by Zoe Unsworth, who was extremely professional, friendly, and helpful throughout the process. Zoe provided excellent customer service, patiently answered my questions, and made the entire enrolment process smooth and straightforward.

Yulia Latokhina

I had a lady called Yulia Latokhina dealing with my enquiries and she was nothing except bubbly, friendly and extremely helpful. She was very patient with me while I was asking my questions and while I was taking a couple days to make my final decisions. She answered all my questions very confidently which gave me peace of mind while thinking about my future career. A very sweet and polite lady.
