So what is The Care Certificate?
It is an agreed set of standards that sets out the knowledge, skills and behaviours expected of specific job roles in the Health and Social Care sector. It is made up of the 15 minimum standards that should be covered if you are ‘new to care’ and should form part of a robust induction programme.

Certificates for The Care Certificate part of the course can be successfully achieved following both the theory element delivered during the 5 day course and through observations of learners’ practical application of these standards in the workplace.
