SEN courses

SEN, standing for special educational needs, is used to describe learning difficulties or disabilities that make it harder for the children in question to learn. As you can imagine, SEN courses are as in-demand as professionals qualified to support children with learning difficulties.

Search SEN courses that incorporate elements such as speech therapy and working with sufferers of ADHD, autism and dyslexia on Reed Courses. Take your first steps into this richly rewarding part of teaching with SEN courses taken predominantly online, but also in the classroom.

You might like to bolster your SEN skills with health and safety courses, or a subject-specific option, for example a Maths course. Find your ideal SEN courses on Reed Courses, including several free courses to help you on your path to a new career.

FAQs

Reed Courses advertises a large variety of SEN courses which are delivered by a range of learning providers. The SEN courses on offer vary in time duration and study method, with many offering tutor support. Whether you want to study for a regulated qualification, or take a SEN course which provides CPD points/hours or qualifications, there are a number of learning options available.

A qualification can only be delivered by an awarding body which is regulated by a government body. The one you will most commonly see on site is OFQUAL, the government regulating body for England - but there is a different regulating body for each country in the United Kingdom, as well as the Republic of Ireland. Each regulating body maintains a list of the qualifications it regulates.

In addition to free SEN courses, Reed Courses also has plenty of paid for online SEN courses, designed to meet all kinds of learning goals and to suit a range of preferred study methods.

Reed Courses advertises a variety of free online SEN courses. Alternatively you'll be able to enrol on an online SEN course of your choosing, and study entirely online. If you'd prefer an in-person learning experience, you could take a classroom course where you'll be taught in a classroom at a given location. Reed Courses also advertises distance learning courses and in-company courses from a variety of learning providers.
