- Abstract
Changes have arisen to the structure of vocational qualifications owing to the introduction of the Qualifications and Credit Framework (QCF). In January, the NVQ in health and social care will change to the diploma in health and social care. Students can undertake a variety of units including infection control, sensory impairment and physical disability. Alternatively, there is a specialist pathway for those working in dementia and learning disabilities environments.
