Modules
Note that each module in the Proficiency Award In Environmental Management is a short course in its own right, and may be studied separately.
A proficiency award a course of study designed for people who already hold qualifications and/or experience in environmental science or a related discipline.
While assuming that you already have a broad understanding of the environment, it acknowledges that you may have areas of weakness that you need to strengthen; whether that be in environmental assessment, taxonomy, earth science, botany or something else.
This course is designed to allow you to concentrate your studies on the areas you need to strengthen, without needing to revisit the other areas of environmental studies which you have already mastered.
