Care certificate & Mandatory Training

Everyone who works in health or social care must know how to keep people safe and meet their needs. 

The Care Certificate ensures that all health and social care professionals have a similar set of introductory skills, behaviours and knowledge, that they can provide high-quality and compassionate care and support, and that they understand their role in their particular workplace setting.

Our course provides you with the knowledge component of the Care Certificate, and you can use your portfolio to show proof of learning and understanding to your assessor.

Who should take this course?

This course is suitable for anybody who is going to be practically observed for the Care Certificate and needs to know what they will be assessed on, what is required of them, and the knowledge they need to fulfil their role.

As made clear by Care Quality Commission (CQC) guidance on Regulation 18(2)(a) of the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014: ‘It is expected that providers that employ healthcare assistants and social care support workers should follow the Care Certificate standards to make sure new staff are supported, skilled and assessed as competent to carry out their roles.’

This means that health and social care professionals are expected to complete the Care Certificate if: they’re new to care, are being inducted as a Health Care Assistant, an Assistant Practitioner or a Care Support Worker – Healthcare Support Worker (HCSW) or Adult Social Care Worker (ASCW), or provide direct care in a residential home, nursing home, hospice or are a home care worker.
