NCFE Extended Diploma for Entry to the Uniformed Services

This course will help you to develop an understanding of the uniformed services which form the cornerstone of our society. Inter-personal skills are at test throughout, and you are actively encouraged to aim towards being confident in looking after yourself; it could be ironing a shirt or leading a team of personnel on Bodmin Moor with map and compass. The skills taught on the course can easily be transferred to management or similar vocations where leadership and decision making are important. You will study a range of units including understanding discipline, leadership and teamwork and expedition skills. During the course you will take on the role of being employed within the uniformed services when completing assignments and activities.

Each assignment will be based around a scenario which reflects tasks and projects that employees would be undertaking in the Uniformed Services working environment. There is also an opportunity to take part in industry recognised additional qualifications which will enhance your experience, skills and employability. The final qualification is equivalent to three A Levels and is well regarded by the uniformed services and Higher Education institutions for progression.
