Biochemic Tissue Salts Course ' You can trace every sickness, every disease & every ailment to a mineral deficiency.' Dr. Linus Pauling, winner of two Nobel Prizes. This statement is not at all surprising if one looks at the work done by Dr. Schuessler on cell salts in the 1850's. He found that the ability of the body to utilise nutritional material is impaired when there is a tissue salt deficiency. He also concluded that if the body became deficient in these essential minerals, the deficiency caused an abnormal or diseased condition. To Dr. Schuessler, a symptom was merely a distress signal, warning that a body constituent was missing & when restored, the body condition returns to normal. This safe, easy-to-use system is a MUST for all therapists & those with an interest in this subject. ...

Biochemistry Course In this course, you will be introduced to biochemistry, which is the study of the chemical processes which take place in living cells. People are sometimes deterred from studying this subject by the thought of the chemistry & physics on which it is based.

The approach will be practice related, with an emphasis on selected areas of the subject which can help to improve understanding of the provision of care to patients & clients.

Biology A Level About A  Levels A levels are subject-specific qualifications normally studied after GCSEs or International GCSEs, though they are appropriate at any age to gain a qualification in a subject in which you are interested. The qualification is made up of two levels: the AS level & the A2 level. The AS level is the first half of a full A level & is a qualification on its own. The A2 level builds on the knowledge gained from both the AS level, as well as the GCSE level. Both the AS & A2 levels & examinations must be successfully completed to gain a full A level. Students usually take 1 year to complete the AS & a further year to complete the A2
- so a full A level usually takes two years. This fast track A level, however, lets you complete the course in half the time (i.e. one year instead of two years). The fast track A level works in exactly the same way & you get the same certificate as you would on the two-year course. A levels are highly valued by schools, colleges & employers. They are at level 3 on the National Qualifications Framework & they carry UCAS points, which will be awarded according to the grade achieved (A = 120, B = 100, C = 80). Many courses at university or college will require you to take A levels in certain subjects. We recommend you check the requirements for those courses & take the appropriate subject A levels. About Our A Level Biology Course This course is made up of the AS level & the A2 level. It is based on two approaches: 1)      The concept-led approach

Includes:: study of the laws, theories & models of biology, exploring the practical application of these in both knowledge & with reference to everyday life. 2)      The context-led approach considers applications of biological knowledge & looks at the underpinning concepts. This course offers both approaches in combination. This mixed approach is more appropriate for distance learning students as there is a need for flexibility. The assessment criteria & structure is the same for both approaches. After each topic there will be a tutor marked assignment, which can be emailed to your tutor as an attachment in Word, Works or RTF format. You will be sent a welcome letter by your tutor, as soon as you make contact, which will outline assignment submission in more detail. There is a project element to both the AS award & A2 award which expect distance learning students to reflect on practical biological knowledge as well as theoretical. The AS project will be based upon a field visit; the A2 project upon an individual experiment. Neither requires students to have laboratory access. Your AS project will be marked & moderated by an independent coursework marker at the centre where you sit your examinations. There may be a fee for the marking. All distance learning students should download the Private Candidates Handbook from Edexcel's website which gives you guidance on finding an examination centre & registering. International students need to download the specific handbook for them, which will give alternative examination arrangements & other details. Your A2 project will be marked externally & moderated by Edexcel. The whole course is based on assessment objectives & combines a number of learning outcome expectations. The assessment objective weightings for the AS award are as follows: AO1 Knowledge & understanding of science & of How Science Works 30-34% AO2 Application of knowledge & understanding of AO3 science & of How Science Works 34-40% AO3 How Science Works 28%   Total 100% The assessment objective weightings for the A2 award are as follows: AO1 Knowledge & understanding of science & of How Science Works 26-30% AO2 Application of knowledge & understanding of AO3 science & of How Science Works 42-48% AO3 How Science Works 26%   Total 100%   What Can I Do After Completing This A Level in Biology? Getting A levels can provide you with a variety of options, such as work, further study or an apprenticeship. After successful completion of this course, you could apply to university, a BTEC Higher National, NVQ, a BTEC Apprenticeship or a mixture of these qualifications. If you are applying to a UK university you are likely to apply through the University & College Admission Service (UCAS). You can find out more about UCAS & how A levels are valued by Further & Higher education institutes on the UCAS website. Financing Your Biology A  Level While our ' Fees' tab below shows only full payment options, we do offer alternatives for financing your A level course. You can either pay everything up front so you don't have to think about it again, or we have an instalment payment plan available, whereby you pay a deposit of £100.84 plus 5 monthly intalments of £60.84.

Business & the Environment Course In 1990 the concept of the environmental management system (EMS) was new to many organisations. However, it has subsequently developed very rapidly, becoming the subject of a number of international standards & schemes. The first national environmental management standard, BS7750, was published in 1992 & the European Union (or Community as it was then called) adopted the same basic approach in 1993 with the introduction of its Eco-Management & Audit Scheme (EMAS). An international standard, ISO 14001, replaced BS 7750 in 1996. In this course we look at how these standards & schemes have developed, the differences between them, & what benefits an organisation can expect to gain from adopting a recognised EMS. While neither ISO 14001 nor EMAS prescribe the level of environmental performance to be achieved, they do require a commitment to continual improvement. The extent of this improvement is for the individual organisation to decide & should be quantified in objectives & targets where practicable. At first glance, continual improvement may appear to be a particularly onerous commitment, but it is vital if the environmental management system is to be seen as credible by interested parties. This course looks at the importance & benefits of continual improvement, how it can be achieved, & how some of the barriers to its achievement can be overcome. Any organisation undertaking a programme of continual improvement needs not only to establish procedures for its work processes but also to regard all procedures, & the processes to which they relate, as being capable of improvement. This course focuses on what is involved in improving work procedures & processes in order to reduce the environmental impacts of your organisation. A sudden environmental crisis - such as a large fire, explosion, release of toxic gas or major water pollution incident - is probably the most feared occurrence by individuals with responsibility for an organisation's environmental performance. However, slow-acting pollution incidents can create a crisis that damages not only the environment but also the organisation, both financially & in terms of its reputation - & the reputation of its products - among the public. Emergency planning is required to deal with any incident that could result in loss of life, ill health or damage to the environment. ...
