CARE CERTIFICATE - FULL PACKAGE
Atom Training Centre
Summary
Overview
The Care Certificate is a set of standards that social care and health workers stick to in their daily working life.
It is the new minimum standards that should be covered as part of induction training of new care workers.
The Care Certificate was developed jointly by Skills for Care, Health Education England and Skills for Health. It:
- applies across social care and health
- links to National Occupational Standards
- covers what is needed to be caring - giving workers a good basis from which they can develop their knowledge and skills.
Who is it for?
Designed with non-regulated workers in mind, the Care Certificate gives everyone the confidence that workers have the same induction - learning the same skills, knowledge and behaviours to provide compassionate, safe and high quality care and support.
The Care Certificate is the start of the career journey and is only one element of the training and education that will make them ready to practice within their specific sector.
Although the Care Certificate is designed for new staff, it also offers opportunities for existing staff to refresh or improve their knowledge.
For CQC regulated providers, the Care Certificate is expected of care workers joining health and social care since April 2015. The CQC Inspector Briefing highlights how they look for evidence in their inspections.

Questions and answers
How much does the exam cost and the certificate cost?
Answer:The price listed is a one-time only cost. Once purchased you will be able to run through the various modules and have a small test at the end of each one. So there is no extra charge. The certificate is available to download and print yourself. There is an option to have the certificate printed and sent out for you for an additional £2 which comes on normal printer quality paper.
This was helpful.Does this course contain all of the material for a Care Certificate or do I have to take several courses? I'm surprised the course has only 6 hours.
Answer:Yes, the 15 modules are split over 17 separate courses, each with its own short test afterwards. The one-off payment gives you access to all 17 courses and you can spend as long as is needed on all courses. The 6 hours is just a guidance, it could take a couple of days or weeks depending on how busy you are. I hope this helps!
