The affects of domestic violence on the community and individuals are far-reaching. During your distance learning Social Care course you can investigate the everyday affects of violence. The Violence in Everyday Life unit is a useful addition to your ICS home study course.

Our distance learning social care course is a valuable qualification if you are looking to move into a career in social care. By choosing an ICS home study course, you will be able to learn about the affects of domestic violence in communities and other social care issues in your own time. As you will be studying in your own time, the work needed to complete an ICS home study course will not conflict with any other commitments you may have.

Throughout your distance learning Social Care course you will have the support of a dedicated ICS tutor. You can also discuss study tips with fellow students through the online Student Community.

Although the Violence in Everyday Life module – investigating affects domestic violence has on the community – is part of our distance learning Social Care course, you can also study this part of the course as a single unit.
