Overview

Great talent doesn’t always walk in the door asking for a job. Usually, top talent needs to be sought out and encouraged to apply for a needed position. Facility hiring managers find the best frontline caregivers by having an effective recruiting strategy that seeks the right people based on specific organizational needs. After executing a successful recruitment strategy, hiring managers are faced with the daunting task of identifying which of the many applicants is right for the job. Mangers do this by thoroughly assessing each applicant. This course discusses the recruiting process, job analysis, recruiting tactics, background screenings, selection tests, and how interviews help managers hire the right frontline caregivers.

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.
