Skills for Health have launched their new Learning Disabilities Core Skills Education and Training Framework.
This framework sets out the essential skills and knowledge necessary for all staff involved in learning disability care.
The framework is particularly relevant to members who support people with learning disabilities. Use of the framework will support members to:
- Standardise the interpretation of learning disabilities education and training
- Guide the focus and aims of learning disabilities education and training delivery
- Ensure the educational relevance of learning disabilities training
- Improve the quality and consistency of education and training provision
The framework also supports the assessment of competence, training needs analysis and provision of minimum standards of performance within performance management systems (e.g. as part of supervision or appraisal).
