A pathway centred
on people.
Working with older people calls for respectful communication, person-centred support and attention to individual needs. Discuss how the qualifications align with your experience and the type of support setting you want to work in.
Plan your practical requirements
Confirm placement or workplace assessment requirements, any screening checks and the delivery arrangement before enrolling. Ask whether your current employment setting could be suitable and what approval is required.
Discuss your learning needs
Talk about trainer guidance, study commitments and support that may be available. Course completion does not guarantee employment; workplace requirements can differ by employer and role.
