Course structure

The course is divided into two levels, each containing two sections. There are activities throughout and your input will be saved for the next time you log in. We have included an approximate time guide of one hour for each level but you may take more or less time depending on previous awareness of carers and your engagement with the activities.

Throughout the course, using video, audio and written case studies, students will tell you about their caring role and the impact it has on their life and their ability to study at university.

The course will provide opportunities to reflect on the challenges student carers face, the impact on their education, and the important role you can have in supporting them at university.

At the end of each level there will be a short quiz to reinforce your learning.
