Staff training sessions
Train the Trainer courses
Courses that enable senior care staff to deliver in-house training: a structured trainer programme and a cost-effective alternative to external trainers.
What is Train the Trainer, and why do care companies need it?
In health and social care, high standards and regulatory compliance are key. Train the Trainer equips experienced senior staff with the knowledge and a recognised qualification to deliver training in-house.
Your organisation can then run its own sessions on mandatory subjects such as Moving and Handling, Medication Administration, Infection Control and Basic Life Support. Participants receive a training qualification on completion.

Which option is right for you?
It depends on your structure, resources and growth plans. Many providers combine both: Train the Trainer for regular, flexible internal training and external sessions for annual compliance and outside validation.
Whether you want to build internal capability or book annual refresher training in line with CQC and Skills for Care guidance, we can help with both.
