Entry Level 2 Skills for Working Life – (Animal Care )
The Entry Level 2 Skills for Working Life (Land-Based Animals) qualification provides learners with the knowledge, practical skills, and confidence needed to care for animals safely within a real farm environment. Through a combination of online theory-based learning and practical on-farm sessions, learners develop an understanding of animal welfare, feeding, housing, health and safety, animal behaviour, and routine husbandry tasks.
Alongside animal care skills, learners build essential employability and life skills, including communication, teamwork, following instructions, personal responsibility, and working safely around animals and equipment. The qualification supports learners to become more independent and prepared for further education, volunteering, supported employment, or entry-level roles within the land-based sector.
