Overview

Any individual, regardless of age, gender, ethnicity or profession, may experience a one-off trauma or frequent trauma in their lives.

Traumatic events can have a devastating effect on our psyche and mental and physical wellbeing and overwhelm our ability to cope. It’s crucial for trauma survivors to seek assistance and support, in order to be able to process their experience and move on with their lives.

Description

Trauma awareness helps family members, caregivers, loved ones and organisations to provide trauma-informed care to people who need help.

Timely intervention and compassionate assistance can go a long way towards helping trauma survivors cultivate healthy and trusting relationships and resume normal lives. People who have suffered trauma may experience terror and intense fear, even while handling the routine interactions of day-to-day life.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
