Industry leading courses

This essential and rewarding sector contains a host of employment opportunities - in a variety of caring and supportive environments - including registered care homes, community support organisations, charities, supported and sheltered accommodation, hospitals, primary care trusts and many more.

But, before you can work with children, young people or vulnerable adults - in any Health or Social Care setting - it’s essential that you acquire the right skills, receive the correct training, and are suitably qualified for the role. That’s where Petroc is here to help.

We offer a wide range of courses in Health and Social Care - available from Level 2 Certificates, right up to Level 4 and 5 Diplomas - in areas such as Youth Work, Adult Care, and Leadership and Management.

So, whether you want to work with adults or young people, and no matter where you are on your career journey, as long as you have a desire to improve people’s lives then we’re sure to have a course to suit you.

What’s more, our part-time study programmes are perfect if you have existing work, study, or home life commitments.

You could be looking to upskill for your current role, continue your professional development, increase your chances for employment or promotion, or completely change career direction. By studying Health and Social Care at Petroc, we can really help you go further in life.
