Have you always wanted to work with animals? On this SEG Level 1 course you will work with a wide variety of animals in our dedicated Animal Centre (from rabbits, guinea-pigs and birds to snakes, lizards and insects).
This introductory level course teaches you how to effectively assist in a team to provide all basic care that animals need within the industry, such as feeding, watering and maintaining health. Theory sessions help you develop your knowledge and understanding of animal welfare and Health & Safety related to these tasks.
This course is taught by experienced, qualified staff through a hands-on practical approach and activity-based theory sessions that deepen your knowledge and understanding. Maths and English are built into your programme to help your progression and you also develop employability skills and knowledge of the animal care industry through trips and a weekly work placement of your choosing.
For those wishing to progress to level 2, a college digital badge in biology also forms part of the course. All units are assessed both practically in the College Animal Centre and through the written work you produce throughout the year.
