...P2- Describe the main employability, personal and communication skills required when applying for a specific job role. Social worker Employability skills To be able to become a social worker in the UK, you need take a 3 year undergraduate degree in social work, or a two year post graduate degree in social work, this needs to be approved by the health and care professions council. You will need to following qualifications, in order to study for an undergraduate degree in social work: Five GCSE’s (A-C) including maths and English and at least two A levels, or an equivalent qualification such as a BTEC National Diploma or NVQ Level 3 in Health and Social Care.

It also says that i need at least two A-levels or equivalent (BTEC diplomas) or level 3 in health and social care.

...During wars, everyone is affected, but mainly children are affected. Children have to move their location. There will be limited resources for children. Also children's education will be affected. Children are affected more by dramatizing events. Children might have to move location. One of the main reasons children would have to move is because they could live near where the war is taking place. Also family could play apart in the war. Another point is children could end up being separated from their family. This can change how the child looks at things. Children would also have limited resources.

...Introduction Marketing- is the action or business of promoting and selling products or services, including market research and advertising. A more simple definition is the right product, in the right place, at the right time, at the right price. It involves a business trying to understand its customers by identifying their needs and produce the products which satisfy those needs. The concept of marketing is that firms should analyse the needs of their customer and then make decisions to satisfy those needs, better than the competition. Nowadays most firms have adopted this marketing concept but it’s not always the case. The philosophy of this concept came around after World War II, when people had to be selective with the products they brought and only buy the ones that meet their needs and requirements but to businesses these would not always be obvious. Now companies have to always keep customers in mind when thinking of a product and the market is so competitive you will need to be the best product out there in that market to have the most chance of being brought. Three simple questions are often used when businesses decided to come up with a new product; what do customers want? Can we develop it while they still want it? How can we keep our customers satisfied? All being very good and valid questions to ask which will help to increase customer satisfaction as they are always in their minds. The two businesses I have chosen to use in order to compare and contrast their marketing...

...P2- Influencing Factors User Side Connection Speed Browser PC Memory Connection Speed A user’s connection speed will heavily influence how fast web pages will load. So there might not be anything wrong with the server or the website itself and might just be your connection. If you are a customer who has dial-up then it will definitely take you longer to load a page, over a customer that has for example Virgin Media fibre optic. Also if you are using mobile broadband it may take longer if you are in an area with bad signal and you are not getting 4G. So make sure you have fairly fast internet before you complain about slow servers hosting the sites. Browser Some people think using an older web browser might not make a difference but...
