Qualification Focus: First Aid Qualifications
At LASER we transform people’s lives by the recognition of their learning and achievement....
Overview
LASER’s Independent Living qualification suite is available at Entry 1, Entry 2 and Entry 3 and comes in Award and Certificate sizes. The qualifications are designed to develop and foster life and learning skills. They are ‘nested’ qualifications (i.e. credits achieved for an Award can contribute towards achievement of a Certificate). Appropriate for learners with learning difficulties or disabilities, these qualifications are available to learners of any age.
The Awards have eight pathways* for learners to choose from at each level:
- Accessing Community Facilities
- Employability Skills
- Household Skills
- Learning Skills
- Leisure Activities
- Personal Care
- Personal Development
- Rights and Responsibilities.
The Certificates have two pathway* choices at each level. Each pathway contains sets of units drawn from the Awards, and the titles of the pathways give an indication of the content of the units in them:
- Looking After Yourself and Your Home
- Living in the Community.
*It is important to note that learners cannot mix and match units across Pathways.
