In this time of tightening resources, high quality, best value training is of paramount importance. A well-trained workforce:
- is better able to support their clients
- feels more confident and valued
- will contribute positively to your returns to government.
Whether it is the impact and new smart ways of working resulting from the Health and Social Care Bill, the practical implications of the Law Commission’s Review of Community Care Law or the implementation challenges of personalisation, Carers UK can help.
Carers UK is a leading expert in the law and issues relating to caring in the UK. Since 1995 we have helped hundreds of organisations to enhance the skills and knowledge of their employees, and thereby deliver better services.
We provide high quality specialist courses for health and social care professionals, advice workers, lawyers and other professionals who work with carers. Our trainers include experienced solicitors and former senior social care managers. As a carers’ organisation, carers’ experiences shape all our work.
Our courses
We have more than 30 course titles covering community care, supporting carers, advocacy, mental capacity and benefits. See our full course list.
Our training draws on our extensive research on caring, policy development, knowledge of good practice and provision of advice and information to carers and professionals. You will benefit from meeting other professionals and sharing ideas. Our comprehensive course notes will help consolidate knowledge after the course.
Our public programme is delivered at our fully equipped training suite, based in central London, which is fully accessible. We have the latest audiovisual facilities to enhance your learning experience. We offer great value for money, and discounts for group bookings (see our Terms and Conditions for details).
In-house training
On top of a number of additional courses all of our public courses can be offered as In-house training and we can develop courses to suit your specific training needs (please see our In-house training section for more information).
