Down Syndrome Awareness Training Course
Welcome to our course about Down syndrome. Over the past 50 years the life expectancy of people with Down syndrome has changed dramatically. As a consequence, awareness of the condition, how the condition affects those who have it and those close to them, and what happens to people with the condition as they age, have all changed significantly too. This awareness continues to grow.
Who should take this Down Syndrome Awareness online training course?
This course has been designed specifically for people who want to know more about Down syndrome. Whilst it provides focus for people working in social care, it will also be useful to a wider audience of people who would like to know more about these topics.
We offer our courses for your LMS as SCORM files. Depending on the scope of what you need there may be a charge for this. Please connect to discuss it with us.
