Why do health care and social care employees need mandatory training?

The Care Quality Commission states the legal requirements for health and social care workers. Employers have a responsibility to ensure that their employees are qualified to the appropriate level, that they have attended certain mandatory training and that their practice is up to date.

Mandatory health and social care training courses – healthcare training requirements

NHS Trusts and other healthcare providers now insist that all medical, nursing and healthcare staff should attend statutory and mandatory training that is aligned to the Skills for Health’s UK Core Skills Training Framework (CSTF).

All our mandatory health and social care training courses content is fully mapped and aligned to Skills for Health’s UK Core Skills Training Framework. All doctors, nurses, aligned health professionals (AHPs) and healthcare assistants working in NHS Trusts through framework recruitment agencies and locum agencies are now required to complete Skills for Health CSTF aligned mandatory training.

Mandatory health and social care training courses help to support employers of health and social care workers to meet the legislative requirements for mandatory training.

E-Learning for health – mandatory health and social care training courses

Learners will be given access to all Skills for Health CSTF aligned online mandatory training courses.

Is the ‘all in one day’ mandatory training still valid?

Yes, the ‘all in one-day mandatory training course’ is still valid but it is not aligned to the Skills for Health UK Core Skills Training Framework (CSTF). Many NHS Trusts and recruitment/locum agencies who supply nurses, doctors, AHPs and other healthcare staff to NHS hospitals and private sector insist that all staff should attend mandatory and statutory training that is aligned to Skills for Health’s UK CSTF.

As such, we recommend Skills for Health CSTF aligned mandatory and statutory training for all agency workers and locum doctors and AHPs working through NHS frameworks, including Health Trust Europe (HTE), Crown Commercial Service (CCS) and the National Collaborative Framework for NHS providers.

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. 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.

CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. If you work in certain professions or for certain companies, your employer may require you to complete a number of CPD hours or points, per year. You can find a range of CPD courses on Reed Courses, many of which can be completed online.

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.
