Introduction to CACHE Level 3
Free course
Interested in Working in Childcare?
There are numerous career pathways in the field of childcare. For some settings, you need to be a qualified practitioner with a licence to practice.
The Cache Level 3 Diploma for Early Years Workforce is a full and relevant qualification as required by Ofqual (the UK Government department regulating qualifications) to work in a setting as a qualified practitioner with a licence to practice.
To find out why this qualification is considered full and relevant, have a read in this post.
The course is designed to give students maximum support throughout their study. On top of the classroom training (run on Saturdays, max once per month), we have incorporated a private Facebook group, and scheduled webinars and Q&A sessions to guide students through the diploma, while they are working full time.
Our course also incorporates the Home Based Childcare Practitioner, to give the students skill that are needed when working in the private sector, as a nanny or childminder.
This unique combined course has been developed in conjunction with a variety of professionals, including Early Years teachers, nutritionists, child psychiatrists, nannies, Cache assessors, Ofsted inspectors and childcare recruiters.
