Course Overview
Not all students leave school knowing what they want to study at College. If this sounds like you then the Level 1 Introductory Diploma in Vocational Studies may be the ideal pathway. It gives you the opportunity to experience lots of different areas before you have to pick one particular area of study. The course offers study in all of the following areas: Sport, Public Services, Travel & Tourism, Health & Social Care and Early Years.
What will I learn?
You will be taught by subject specialists from each of the curriculum areas who will be able to share their excellent knowledge of working in the different sectors. This means you will learn about Sport, Public Services, Travel & Tourism, Health & Social Care and Early Years in a varied and interesting way.
