Why this CPD course

Employers increasingly ask for evidence of targeted learning. Completing Level 3 Award in Health and Social Care gives you a dated CPD certificate tied to Health and Social Care, alongside notes you can use in reviews. The course sits at Level 3 within our Health & Social Care specialisation. Compared with campus diplomas, this CPD format emphasises speed-to-value. You pay a flat £250, start when you are ready, and study Health and Social Care without relocating or committing to academic credit frameworks. That makes it suitable for team upskilling budgets as well as individual learners. The learning experience is intentionally lean: focused reading and activities, an online multiple-choice assessment, and a certificate issued within three working days of successful completion. Module-by-module pages will expand over time; until then, request the syllabus for the current outline of Health and Social Care. Whether you are refreshing knowledge or exploring health & social care for the first time, this programme gives you a structured path through Health and Social Care with clear completion criteria. Keep the certificate for your CPD log, and use the skills section below as a checklist for what you should be able to discuss after finishing.
