The Care Certificate e-Learning

The Care Certificate e-Learning

The Care Certificate is a nationally agreed set of standards that detail the learning outcomes and requirements that health and social care support workers are expected to be trained in before they can work unsupervised.

The Care Certificate ensures that all health and social care professionals have a consistent set of introductory skills, behaviours, and knowledge, enabling them to provide high-quality, compassionate care and support, and to understand their roles within their specific workplace settings.

This online training program offers a collection of Interactive courses that will provide you with the knowledge components needed to complete the Care Certificate.

You will learn about the theory and skills that you need to demonstrate when you are being assessed for the Care Certificate, and will learn how to deliver high-quality, person-centred care.

To fully implement the learning outcomes of the certificate, your employer must also assess your skills practically in your workplace against the Care Certificate Standards.
