In this episode of The Care Social, we’re joined by Access Skills CEO Neil Crawford, and Joelma Fernandes as they break down the new government-funded Learning and Development Support Scheme (LDSS) and how it can help social care providers access affordable, practical training.
Whether you’re a social care provider, manager or part of a care team, this episode explains how to cut through the confusion around training, funding and qualifications, and why investing in your staff is one of the best decisions you can make.
Joelma and Neil share with our host Barry Price:
- What the Learning and Development Support Scheme (LDSS) is, how it works and what it replaces
- How much funding care providers can claim and when payments are made
- Why the Level 5 Leadership and Management Diploma is one of the most supported qualifications
- The difference between qualifications and practical training, and why care teams need both
- What the future of care training looks like and how technology is changing learning for the better
This episode is full of practical advice for anyone looking to better support their team through training and development. It is especially useful for smaller services that may be applying for training support for the first time.
