Community Care in Practice

The FdA Community Care in Practice has been designed for those who are currently working or want to work in community care. This foundation degree meets the diverse needs of the local and national communities and, as a result, students will study a range of topics that will prepare them for a non-clinical career in community health.

An integral part of the programme is the 80 hours of placement undertaken by each student. Whilst on placement, students will experience professional work through a variety of community care or health-related settings. Students will record, reflect and monitor their growth and individual professional expertise to tailor their own career and academic progression.

Scarborough TEC is a small, friendly college that is part of the TEC Partnership.

By choosing to study higher education at Scarborough TEC, you will experience the benefits of studying in a small, friendly environment whilst also being part of a larger, innovative organisation.
