If you are a kind, caring, and empathetic person, and want to give people the best life possible, our industry-recognised qualifications are an excellent opportunity for you to build on your existing knowledge and will help you to progress in your career in care.
Our courses are workplace‑based, which means you must already be employed in the health and social care industry when you apply.
There is no need for college attendance as you will take part in self-directed study at home, with assessments, observations, and support arranged flexibly around your shifts and free time, making it an ideal way to learn while continuing to work in care.
The assessor will visit you monthly at your workplace to check on your progress, so your employer will need to allow our assessor access to visit you in your setting.
There will always be jobs with the demographic of older adults.
Our courses are awarded by NCFE CACHE.
Choose from a number of different specialisms.
Our assessor will adapt to your work rota or timetable.
“I have experience working in adult health and social care, including roles within nursing and care homes where I have supported elderly individuals, people living with dementia, those with mental health needs, and individuals with physical disabilities. Caring for others is not just a job to me; it is a vocation, and I am passionate about making a positive difference in people’s lives.”
