Information on the Degree
How it works in brief:
In general, new students will have to complete
the foundation module 1101 Understanding
Canine Care and Behaviour .This teaches a
broad and exciting knowledge of the dog and its
relationship with society.
However, police dog handlers
can be validated to the
CIDBT's satisfaction
may begin the courses immediately without
completing the foundation module.

Diploma or Degree that you wish to attain.
Middlesex University Modules
Once you have completed approximately one third
of the CIDBT modules you can then arrange to discuss
with a Middlesex University link tutor - Work
Based Learning modules. They will explain how
that works, the registration and accreditation.
Once the mandatory CIDBT & Middlesex University
modules are complete you will be awarded your
qualification.
Your prior knowledge is assessed by the University
and may be used as a part of the WBS
course modules. |
