Effective Parenting Skills

About the Level 2 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.

Level 2 Effective Parenting Skills 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 2 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.

The Skills and Education Group also includes two nationally recognised awarding organisations; Skills and Education Group Awards and Skills and Education Group Access. Through our awarding organisations we have developed a reputation for providing high-quality qualifications and assessments for the 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
