The endorsed learning providers have received grant funding to support you with the cost of this essential training during this period. The funded training is available until 31 May 2023.
You must have an Adult Social Care Workforce Data Set (ASC-WDS) account to access the funded training.
You need to create an account and add your workplace details – if you’re CQC regulated you can enter your location ID or postcode and confirm the details are correct. The account will be reviewed and approved by Skills for Care’s support team. Log in to your account and enter your total number of staff.
If you’re an individual employer you won’t have an ASC-WDS account so the above points don’t apply to you.
Our aim, working with the Department of Health and Social Care, is to help employers quickly train new recruits (including people redeploying around the sector). The funding for this training will be kept under review.
Training delivery approaches vary between providers but use a range of methods which include virtual classroom sessions with trainer interaction, eLearning including video based eLearning, observation of practical competence where required and guided support. Various trainer support options are also available including video interaction, phone, email and interactive chat. Contact the providers to discuss the training and support available.
