Social Care Workforce Development

Social Care Workforce Development Programme (SCWDP)

The Social Care Workforce Development Programme provides a comprehensive training and development programme in partnership with social care providers in the Vale of Glamorgan.

Designed around the learning needs of the statutory, independent and third sector, it combines mandatory training with bespoke, specialised courses guided by an annual audit of social care providers, social services PDRs and feedback from other groups within the Vale.

The courses are provided free of charge. A non-attendance/cancellation fee of £40 per person for a full day. 

Please Note: If the course is no-longer available online, delegates are within the charging period.

Staff are expected to attend for the duration of the training. Those who do not complete the full course will not be issued with a certificate.

Foster Carers

Once approved, Foster Carers will be supported by training. The training is directly linked to Foster Carers Induction Standards and following their first year, continued professional development.

Foster Carers can also attend any LSCB training available.
