Course content

This foundation degree provides a higher apprenticeship pathway and is suitable for you if you are currently working in a health or social care setting. Our assistant practitioner and nursing associate apprenticeships will develop your knowledge and skills enabling you to progress to an assistant practitioner or nursing associate role.

These apprenticeships are designed to equip you with the skills and knowledge that you need to administer high-quality, safe and compassionate care in one of the rewarding careers under the umbrella of health and social care.

The course has an applied focus, with practice-based learning making up a high proportion of the qualification. This means that you can apply and consolidate your classroom-based knowledge through your practical work.
