Who is the course for:

This unit introduces learners to the main environmental effects of the use of the earth’s resources by an increasing human population. Emphasis will be placed on identifying ways in which the sustainable use of resources can be achieved through action plans ranging from the international to individual scale. It will be of particular interest to pupils interested in wildlife, conservation, sustainability, and climate change for further study, and to those who are unable to access an Environmental Science Higher via their school.

Duration:

The course is designed to be completed over one academic year and will be flexible to cater for individual learning styles. Successful completion of this unit is equivalent to one HNC module at SCQF level 7 and 8 SQA Credits.
