Care Certificate Elearning

Care Certificate training is an important part of any health and social care role.

Our digital workbooks are the perfect support aid to the Care Certificate assessment, helping learners acquire the knowledge needed before they are assessed.

The Care Certificate was introduced in 2015 as a way of ensuring that training and development for support roles in health and social care were consistent, and that everyone was working towards the same skills, knowledge and behaviour. It was updated in March 2025 to include the mandatory Oliver McGowan Training.

In order to achieve this, 16 standards were devised and together they formed the Care Certificate. It is recognised as an important part of an induction, or an effective way of refreshing or improving knowledge.

The Care Certificate cannot be carried out through e-learning training alone; the learning must be a combination of both written and practical learning.

Therefore, our digital workbooks are the perfect support aid for you in order to achieve the knowledge you need to complete your Care Certificate assessment.

The workbooks are a great way of bringing the learning into the workplace, helping to bridge the gap between knowledge and practice by showing clear links.

They also include true-to-life examples to help contextualise knowledge; key terms, and, importantly, they allow you to reflect on your practice, and demonstrate evidence of continuing professional practice in your real workplace.

What is The Care Certificate?

The Care Certificate is an agreed set of standards that set out the knowledge, skills and behaviours expected of those new to the health and social care sectors. It describes the minimum things support workers must know and be able to do and includes the mandatory Oliver McGowan Training on Autism. 

The Care Certificate is also the beginning of the career journey for those new to care, a foundation for health and adult social care integration, it ensures those new to the sector are supported and it is a CQC expectation - all employers should be offering it.
