Mandatory Training for Support Workers - CPD Accredited

A support worker involves helping people who require care and support to live as independently as they can. Support work is a tremendously diversified job since each person who needs assistance has individual, unique needs; as a result, no two days are the same.

Working as a support worker can be pretty gratifying. Even though the job might be demanding, making a big difference in someone's life and assisting them in being more self-sufficient gives you a sense of success and happiness. It's an excellent career choice for people who appreciate a variety of tasks and interacting with others.

Sharing new experiences, making new memories, and celebrating triumphs are some of the most enjoyable aspects of the profession. You'll assist folks in conquering their anxieties and problems while also boosting their self-esteem and confidence.

A support worker's day-to-day duties vary depending on the needs of the person they are assisting. This can include assisting people with their daily tasks, teaching new skills, providing emotional support, and ensuring that they live a fulfilled life.

This role is primarily focused on enabling and supporting people to live their lives as independently as they can. We help people with a wide range of requirements at lifeways, including learning difficulties, autism, physical disabilities, traumatic brain injuries, and mental health issues.

As a worker, you could work in people's homes and health and social care settings like supported living services.

At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
