How Distance Learning Works:
Chevron Training's care courses can all be completed through our distance learning with online support delivery method.
Each learner is issued with an email consisting of a username and password to access the course materials so they can complete the course at their convenience. It approximately takes 30-40 hours to complete these courses online, however, each learner will have 2 months to complete each module.
For any difficulties which may arise during the course you can call one of our highly qualified trainers who will assist you with any concerns relating to the course content in addition to this you will also be assigned an online tutor who will answer all queries you may have in relation to the course. The online forums offer additional support to our learners as our trainers will answer all the questions which are posted on the forum.
Each learner will complete the assessments which are required to attain the FETAC Level 5 award. |
CHILDCARE TRAINING COURSES
Chevron Training, the leading training company in Ireland, has introduced a suite of FETAC Level 5 Childcare Training Courses.
Learners that successfully complete the six mandatory modules and two elective modules can attain a FETAC Level 5 Major Certificate in Childcare. This qualification is now required by The Department of Health & Children's Free Pre-School year in Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) Scheme, however, in recognition of the complex nature of the attainment of staff within the early education sector, an interim qualification measure has been introduced. This interim measure states that where a pre-school leader has attained a component award pertaining to Early Childhood Education and Child Development and has 2 years experience working with children between 0-6 years, he/she will be deemed to be sufficiently qualified for the ECCE Scheme. However, it is expected that those qualifying under this interim measure will obtain the full FETAC Level 5 Major Award within 2 years of the commencement of the scheme.
Childcare Opportunities
The changing lifestyles of modern Ireland have fuelled an increase in demand for qualified childcare workers. This profession promises to deliver an exciting and varied career with job opportunities available in a range of childcare related environments including creche facilities, montessori schools and playgroups. Chevron's comprehensive range of FETAC Level 5 childcare courses will endeavour to prepare learners to work effectively within any childcare setting.
The Childcare Training Course is available as either a classroom based or distance learning course. Please note IT Skills and Internet Access are required to complete a course by Distance Learning.
