ICON College of Technology and Management LondonThe Department of Health and Social Care at ICON College of Technology and Management focuses on offering quality undergraduate studies in Health and Social Care leading to gaining a BTEC Higher National Diploma in Healthcare Practice. The purpose of the new (RQF) HND Course Diploma in Healthcare Practice is aimed at students wanting to continue their education through applied learning and to develop students as professional, self-reflecting individuals able to meet the demands of employers in the healthcare sector and adapt to a constantly changing world.
During the two years of study, students will be able to demonstrate a sound knowledge of the basic concepts, values, and principles of healthcare practice, and the skills to perform effectively as a support worker in several different settings in the healthcare sector. They will be able to communicate accurately and appropriately and they will have the behaviors and qualities needed for employment that require some degree of personal responsibility. They will have developed a range of transferable skills to ensure effective teamwork, independent initiatives, organizational competence, and problem-solving strategies. They will be adaptable and flexible in their approach to healthcare practice, show resilience under pressure, and meet challenging targets within a given resource.
Students completing the studies will be awarded the Pearson HND after certification. Students with satisfactory grades in the HND can apply to continue their higher education at a UK university to complete a degree course in the chosen field using the top-up courses.
