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.

Laura Campbell was an absolute delight…

Laura Campbell was an absolute delight to talk to! She gave me all the information I needed in precise detail, which helped make my decision to go on with course a no brainer. Laura made sure I understood everything and frequently asked if I had any questions before proceeding with the application. We also had a lovely hour long chat about animals(specifically dogs) which I don't get to do very often so it was a nice change. I am extremely happy I finally get to fulfill my lifelong dream and make real use of my skills and experiences.

They took the time to explain everything clearly, provided useful and informative guidance, and made sure I fully understood the information. Their knowledge, patience, and willingness to help really stood out. Communication was excellent, and I felt well supported from start to finish. Overall, a very professional and reliable person who clearly takes pride in providing a high standard of service.
