Each pack comes with teaching slides, group activities, and assessment forms, so once you are qualified you can start training your team on day one.

Optional: External Endorsement and Quality Assurance

Once you are delivering your own training, an optional annual support package gives your in-house courses external credibility that stands up well when the CQC or a commissioner comes asking questions: trainer observations, regular monitoring against current standards, and feedback and written reports after each check. Certificates for your learners are £2 each, and the annual support package is £105 per year.
