Introduction

This Prospectus outlines the health and social care training programmes available to those working in the social care sector, including those in the Independent, Private and Voluntary sector in the city for the first half of 2014 - 15. The learning and development opportunities in this Prospectus are provided by the training team at the Moorfoot Learning Centre, the workforce development unit for Sheffield City Council and the jointly funded Care Homes Support Team. In addition to taught courses we provide a number of e-learning programmes. Have a look later in the Prospectus for the programmes we run and how you can access them. It is essential that we have a highly trained, competent workforce providing high quality services to the citizen’s of Sheffield. If we are to develop care and effective re-ablement services that provide personalised care then the skills of the workforce need to be at the highest level possible.

We access services at times when we are experiencing great changes including poor health or family upheaval and at such times we can be at our most vulnerable. The Government wants local authorities to have high quality services available that people can trust, that are person centred so they can deliver the specific requirements of any individual coming forward for a service. This applies whether the service is being delivered by a personal assistant employed by a service user, by domiciliary/home support workers, supported living workers, or by staff in the more traditional setting of a nursing or care home. This is the challenge facing the workforce today and the organisations that employ them. Having a highly skilled and motivated workforce with competent and inspirational managers is one way of ensuring that we can deliver services of quality. We need staff who are skilled, good listeners, good communicators, respectful, flexible, active in safeguarding dignity and rights, empowering people and able to offer choices that allow service users to make decisions for themselves about their own lives. Alongside this they need to have a range of good practical skills so they know how to safely employ moving and handling techniques, know how to safely prepare and handle food and dispense medication. We are actively working in partnership with the other local authorities in South Yorkshire and a range of private sector providers to secure funding from Skills for Care to support organisations to deliver units of qualification for the workforce. The Social Care Development Partnership (South Yorkshire) will in all likelihood continue to receive funding from Skills for Care – the Workforce Development Fund. I would encourage all

5

organisations to complete their NMDS entries and become members of the partnership so that they can secure funding to support their workers to achieve units from the qualification credit framework (QCF). This will mean that we can accredit their learning on dementia, end of life care or work with people who have a learning disability.

Changes for 2014 - 2015

One of the changes for this year in recognition of the financial climate is that there will be a defined offer to the sector of “free training”. This prospectus for the first half of the year details the free offer for the sector. From October 2014 onwards a further update of the prospectus will be available and these programmes will be charged. Organisations accessing the workforce development fund as a partnership member will be expected to use this funding to pay for training/workbook routes leading to the various qualifications. The Training and Development Officer working into the sector will be available to discuss this with you in more detail. The aim is that we still have a clear offer to support the sector, providing access to programmes that organisations have had difficulty accessing elsewhere in the market. The basis for accessing this in some cases is different with a cost being applied. There are programmes available that are required to meet CQC standards and there are some training programmes that are about building skills in the sector over and above the base line skills required by CQC. This prospectus details what is offered to support the sector and the basis on which this support for workforce development can be accessed. Our intention is that the programmes and accreditation on offer supports your organisation and your workers to deliver the quality services the people of Sheffield require.

Our aim The Moorfoot Learning Centre (formerly Brockwood) has been a training provider unit for Sheffield City Council staff since 1990. We are funded to support Council care services and Independent Sector organisations in developing their staff as part of modernising the Social Care Workforce. The training programmes inside this prospectus are delivered to the Skills for Care Standards, Department of Health requirements and national occupational standards. All training provides underpinning knowledge for QCF Diplomas at Levels 2 - 5, or the standards laid down by other statutory bodies including Highfield Awarding Body for Compliance (HABC). Our courses provide training to the national minimum standards as set out by the Care Standards Act 2000. The Moorfoot Learning Centre holds Recognised Provider status accredited by the National Skills Academy for its training delivery. The unit has Customer Service Excellence Standards accreditation and regularly undertakes audits with its customers to ensure its development programmes meet customer requirements and that all processes related to this are delivered in a timely and appropriate manner. Advisory and Consultancy Services We offer advisory and consultancy services including

training needs analyses

training planning

workforce development planning

succession planning

performance monitoring and management

advice with continual compliance to meet registration requirements. We can also provide consultancy and opportunities to develop your own learning and development resources for Safeguarding, Moving and Handling and Medication. Charges will be applied from 2014-15 for some of these services. You will need to discuss this with the learning and development officer linked to this work from the Moorfoot Learning Centre.

Access to training opportunities

The Moorfoot Learning Centre and the Care Homes Support Team aim to provide Learning and Development opportunities on subject areas identified from CQC inspections, contract monitoring, national requirements and employer requirements.

As far as possible this core training offer is free to organisations. However some specialist provision may incur a charge, where this is the case this will be clearly stated. Organisations can also discuss their specific training requirements. If we have capacity to deliver/develop such programmes the charges would be as follows:

Full day programmes Half day programmes Full day course at own worksite Half day course at own worksite Bespoke training courses QCF workbooks Competency mapping ( including certification)

£50 per person, per day £25 per person, per day from £400 max 15 from £200 max 15 cost by negotiation Dependent on size of award £15 per workbook

(Where applicable maximum numbers for each programme to be agreed as part of the contracting arrangements)

These prices include all handouts, materials and certificates unless otherwise specified.

Charges for Non-attended and Cancelled Training Places There will be a charge levied for all training places that either cancelled or not attended on social care training. Please note there will be no charge if you substitute another person to fill the place at the point of cancellation. Cancellations and non-attendance will be charged to your organisation (see Policy for details). The demand for places on training programmes and the cost to the Local Authority in providing training means that every place that is booked needs to be a place used. In 2013/14 an average 20% all training places were wasted due to cancellations that could not be filled, or because of non-attendance on the day.

Training Cancellation and Non-Attendance Charging Policy 2014/15

Aim of the Policy The aim of this policy is to provide managers with clear information on the charges that will be made for the cancellation of training places and for the non-attendance of booked participants. Please note this policy applies to all Sheffield City Council Moorfoot Learning Centre programmes and all Care Homes Support Team citywide courses Reason for Policy The demand for places on training programmes and the cost to the Local Authority in providing training means that every place booked needs to be a place used. For services and organisations where there is a funded training Service Level Agreement in place, training places booked (i.e. purchased) will continue to be supplied free on the understanding that the place will be used. Booking When booking training an expenditure code must be provided (applicable to all internal Council Services), and invoicing details provided by non-Council organisations. Arrangements for Service User Employers will be through the Direct Payment Office. These will be used to claim any charges incurred. Charges will be claimed on a monthly basis. A monthly non-attendance report will be provided to managers/employers, and to Training Commissioning Groups.

10

Cancellations Cancellation charges will apply for all places cancelled regardless of length of cancellation notice given. They will apply up to the day of the training. The charge for cancellation will be £50 per day, for each training day cancelled. The cancellation charge for ½ days training programmes will be £25 per ½ day. There will be no charge if you substitute another person to fill the place at the point of cancellation. This person must attend otherwise the charges will apply. Cancellation charges will apply to all Council services and all external organisations. Cancellation charges will not apply to Service Users who directly employ their own workers. Non-attendance Non-attendance on the day (did not attend and did not cancel) will be charged at a rate of £80 per day, for each day of non-attendance. The charge for ½ day programmes will be £40 per day. These non-attendance charges will apply to all Council services and all external organisations Service Users who directly employ their own workers will be charged a flat rate of £10 per day for non-attendance (rate applies to both full days and ½ days). Any organisation that fails to comply with the cancellation/ non- attendance charging policy e.g. failing to make payment for such, will not be able to access any further training from this offer. Circumstances when Charges will not apply Charges for cancellations or non-attendance will not apply only if:

There is a personal or family emergency

Compassionate leave has been given

Staff have called in sick using absence reporting policies and procedures

The person has left the Organisation Manager/employer confirmation of the above is required at point of cancellation or on the day of non-attendance otherwise charges will be incurred.

11

Arriving Late on the Day of Training Please be aware if participants arrive late for training we cannot guarantee they will be able to join the course after it has started. If this is the case participants will be classed as not attending and subject to a non-attendance charge. Courses cancelled by the Moorfoot Learning Centre and the Care Home Support Team If a training course is cancelled by the Moorfoot learning Centre or the Care Home Support Team due to unforeseen circumstances, places will be offered on future dates where possible. Further Information We hope that the Prospectus is easy to understand and that you can find what you want. However, if you would like further information or would like to discuss your particular needs, please contact Joanne Nicholson on Sheffield (0114) 2930577 or e-mail [email protected].

Competency Mapping

This is an alternative to taught courses and is another route for demonstrating staff skills and knowledge. The process is a way of evidencing that we have a skilled workforce and written records of competence. This enables large numbers of staff to gain recognition of competence and allows completion of national training standards. If staff can demonstrate knowledge then they can access the competency mapping route, this is also suitable as a refresher for Health, Safety and Fire, Food Safety and Safeguarding Adults, all of which have a mandatory refresher period. The workbook should be completed within 6 months, assessed and signed off by the manager and returned to Moorfoot Learning Centre for standardisation, following standardisation certificates will be issued. To access this route please contact [email protected] who will discuss the options with you. The workbooks available are:

Equality and Diversity

Worker Safety

Effective Communication

Training Cancellation and Non-Attendance Charging Policy 2014/15

Aim of the Policy The aim of this policy is to provide managers with clear information on the charges that will be made for the cancellation of training places and for the non-attendance of booked participants. Please note this policy applies to all Sheffield City Council Moorfoot Learning Centre programmes and all Care Homes Support Team citywide courses Reason for Policy The demand for places on training programmes and the cost to the Local Authority in providing training means that every place booked needs to be a place used. For services and organisations where there is a funded training Service Level Agreement in place, training places booked (i.e. purchased) will continue to be supplied free on the understanding that the place will be used. Booking When booking training an expenditure code must be provided (applicable to all internal Council Services), and invoicing details provided by non-Council organisations. Arrangements for Service User Employers will be through the Direct Payment Office. These will be used to claim any charges incurred. Charges will be claimed on a monthly basis. A monthly non-attendance report will be provided to managers/employers, and to Training Commissioning Groups. Cancellations Cancellation charges will apply for all places cancelled regardless of length of cancellation notice given. They will apply up to the day of the training. The charge for cancellation will be £50 per day, for each training day cancelled. The cancellation charge for ½ days training programmes will be £25 per ½ day. There will be no charge if you substitute another person to fill the place at the point of cancellation. This person must attend otherwise the charges will apply. Cancellation charges will apply to all Council services and all external organisations. Cancellation charges will not apply to Service Users who directly employ their own workers.

78

Non-attendance Non-attendance on the day (did not attend and did not cancel) will be charged at a rate of £80 per day, for each day of non-attendance. The charge for ½ day programmes will be £40 per day. These non-attendance charges will apply to all Council services and all external organisations Service Users who directly employ their own workers will be charged a flat rate of £10 per day for non-attendance (rate applies to both full days and ½ days). Any organisation that fails to comply with the cancellation/ non- attendance charging policy e.g. failing to make payment for such, will not be able to access any further training from this offer. Circumstances when Charges will not apply Charges for cancellations or non-attendance will not apply only if:

There is a personal or family emergency

Compassionate leave has been given

Staff have called in sick using absence reporting policies and procedures

The person has left the Organisation Manager/employer confirmation of the above is required at point of cancellation or on the day of non-attendance otherwise charges will be incurred. Arriving Late on the Day of Training Please be aware if participants arrive late for training we cannot guarantee they will be able to join the course after it has started. If this is the case participants will be classed as not attending and subject to a non-attendance charge. Courses cancelled by the Moorfoot Learning Centre and the Care Home Support Team If a training course is cancelled by the Moorfoot learning Centre or the Care Home Support Team due to unforeseen circumstances, places will be offered on future dates where possible.
