Although the Care Certificate is designed for new staff, it also offers opportunities for existing staff to refresh or improve their knowledge. If you are inducting a new manager, visit our Manager Induction Standards page instead.

What is the Care Certificate?
The Care Certificate is a set of standards that social care and health workers stick to in their daily working life.
It is the new minimum standards that should be covered as part of the induction training of new care workers.
The Care Certificate was developed jointly by Skills for Care, Health Education England and Skills for Health. It:
- applies across social care and health
- links to National Occupational Standards and units in qualifications
- covers what is needed to be caring – giving workers a good basis from which they can develop their knowledge and skills.
Why is the Care Certificate required?
The Care Certificate delivers public confidence in the provision of healthcare services and sets out a benchmark to which standards can be assessed.
How does the Care Certificate work?
There’s two parts to the Care Certificate:-
- Training
- Demonstrating competence at work
Our comprehensive care certificate e-learning package provides you with the training element. Once you have completed your your online care certificate course, your employer still needs to see evidence that you can practice what you have learnt in the workplace. You will be issued with a Care Certificate workbook on which to record knowledge gained on the assessments pages.
What is the Skills for Health’s UK ‘Core Skills Training Framework’ (CSTF)?

To minimise these challenges, LearnPac Systems works with various UK health and social care organisations to develop statutory and mandatory training courses in line with Skills for Health’s UK Core Skills Training Framework (CSTF).
This includes mandatory training courses in the Skills for Health’s UK Core Skills Training Framework – CSTF Statutory Mandatory Training Subject Guide Version 1.3 , Skills for Health Clinical Care UK Core Skills Training Framework Subject Guide April 2015 and other awareness courses for health and social care workers.
