During the course you are fully supported by our full time in-house & highly qualified tutors, who are available to answer any of your questions & queries by both email and phone. Additional support is also provided through our online forums, where peer to peer discussions are facilitated.

Who should enrol?
The course will cater for a variety of adult learners with a minimum Level 5 Certificate/ Ordinary Level Leaving Certificate standard of education. Learners should have previously have completed a Level 5 award in Childcare and may have experience in working in ECCE settings but this will not be mandatory. Younger participants will tend to complete the course by the full-time method. Some mature adults will be seeking new career opportunities or be working in the home but many will be already working in the sector and either already be in supervisory positions or aspire to such positions. These will tend to opt for the part-time learning route to achieving the award.

Healthcare Courses
“Excellent opportunity for anyone who has the relevant experience as a healthcare assistant but lacks the qualifications. They provide online courses so that you do not have to attend a full-time college course and once you have the experience you can work while completing the modules through Chevron!”

The layout of the course was easy to follow and if I needed a question answered the tutors would always help and ensure you fully understood the answer. I want to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you to Mairéad and all the team at Chevron Training . I would highly recommend Chevron Training to those working and seeking to get qualified in healthcare or childcare.”
