By taking part in our Online A-Level Philosophy Course, not only will you gain a thorough grounding in key philosophical concepts, themes, texts and technique, but you will also develop a range of transferable skills, which can be applied far beyond the study of philosophy and will set you apart from other candidates in your chosen field or profession. You will enhance your communicative, argumentative and critical thinking skills through developing the ability to reason, form your own judgements, express yourself coherently and contribute to the process of debate. You will also improve your analytical and interpretative skills through understanding the ways in which philosophers have analysed the core concepts of philosophy, and be able to identify how subtle differences in analyses can have wider impacts on philosophical arguments.
Furthermore, you will also test your creative skills and ability to adapt by independently generating arguments, objections and counter-arguments. Furthermore, by learning about four of the core philosophical concepts, you will discover the importance of open-mindedness and reflection. We also hope to show you the benefits of continuous learning and intellectual curiosity by inspiring a sustained enjoyment of, and interest in, philosophy.
Therefore, the skills that you will acquire during the CloudLearn Online A-Level Philosophy Course can set you apart from your peers and put you on a path toward further learning or a successful career in a wide-range of professions.
