Description

The UK, the birthplace of Sir Isaac Newton’s Apple, invites you to explore the intricate world of Botany, where each leaf and flower unveils the complex workings of life. This course invites you on a journey from the cellular level to the grandeur of ecosystems, decoding the language of Botany written in every tendril and root. Starting with an introduction to biology, the course unravels the mysteries of plant morphology, cell biology, and plant anatomy, cultivating a deep understanding of plant physiology.

It further takes you on a fascinating expedition through embryology, genetics, and evolution, revealing how plants have adapted over centuries. Learn about the silent but significant role of cryptograms and microbes, the majestic gymnosperms, and the enchanting angiosperms. The course concludes with a glimpse into the past, through the lens of Palaeobotany, making you comprehend how the botanical world shaped the Earth's history. Engage with Botany, not just as a science, but a story of life.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
