Experience
Tutor led support has enabled learners to successfully complete their Care Certificate training programme with us at NHS trusts. The Care Certificate has helped the learners to achieve introductory skills, knowledge, and behaviours to provide compassionate, safe and high quality care.
Please contact our team if you wish to discuss the new L2 Adult Social Care Certificate qualification.
Funding for the new L2 Adult Social Care Certificate qualification
The Learning and Development Support Scheme will have a digital online claims service that allows adult social care employers to claim funding for certain training courses and qualifications on behalf of eligible care staff. Funding will be available for eligible courses and qualifications that have been both paid for and started between 1 April 2024 and 31 March 2025 (inclusive).
The Learning and Development Support Scheme approved course list includes the Level 2 Adult Social Care Certificate Qualification. Eligible employers can claim funding for the Level 2 Adult Social Care Certificate on behalf of eligible care staff for up to £1500 per qualification.
This funding is more limited than the previous scheme with no dedicated funding specifically for the Level 2 Adult Social Care Certificate.
TESTIMONIALS
I thoroughly enjoyed completing my Care Certificate training. My tutor Jenny was very supportive and knowledgeable which helped me to apply the training in my job role.
The Care Certificate is an entry level requirement for any healthcare staff starting with the NHS. Pier training’s support has been brilliant for us. I wont hesitate to recommend this to any other NHS trust.
