Students
wishing to achieve a Diploma in any therapy form must
also study
Anatomy & Physiology,
unless they already have an existing ITEC qualification
in
this subject OR are awarded accreditation for prior
learning by ITEC
There are two options for studying
Anatomy & Physiology
with the Edinburgh Therapy Academy. |
Option 1: FULL TUITION
Provision of course text and study pack with detailed syllabus for each
body system. Plus attendance
at 7 study days and revision sessions (which include sample exam questions)
and examination.
Full fees are applicable for this option.
We suggest that option 1 is best suited to students with minimal prior
learning of systems of the body, and who feel they would benefit from clear
and direct guidance and support to work through the specified syllabus. |
Mr Bones |
Option 2: PART TUITION
Provision of course text and study pack with detailed syllabus for each
of the body system. Students are required to undertake home study using
course text and study pack. Attendance at 2 revision sessions (which
include sample exam questions), and examination, but no attendance at
training days. A reduction in fees is applicable for this option. We
suggest that OPTION 2 may be suitable for highly motivated students who
work well independently with limited support, and also those who have
some prior learning of systems of the body. |
The ITEC Diploma Course
The Anatomy & Physiology
studied gives the student a thorough understanding
of the
systems of
the body, how they work together and individually and also the pathology
of each system.
Study methods vary using both text and practical techniques to help
facilitate the practical learner.
Quiz’s and games along with diagrammatic material are used and
of course Anatomy & Physiology
wouldn’t be complete without Mr Bones
The Diploma can be studied alone
without a therapy form as the course delivery is
independent of therapy tuition. Students can select
either of the above Option 1- Full Tuition or Option
2 – Part Tuition. The Diploma level of study
as designated by the Qualifications Curriculum
Authority is LEVEL 3 which makes this course a
popular choice among students from other establishments
who are studying other therapies such as Bowen
Technique, Thai Massage and Kinesiology.
