View care training plans Explore training areasStart with service, role and risk
Training needs depend on the people supported, role responsibilities, workplace risks, local procedures, service type, current guidance and the nation in which the service operates. Check guidance, map responsibilities, separate online knowledge from practical competence, include local induction and review needs over time.
England: CQC Regulation 18 and staffing
Regulation 18 is England-specific. Check current CQC guidance and arrangements for your service. MoreCPD does not claim CQC approval or guarantee compliance or inspection outcomes.
Care Certificate boundaries
The Care Certificate includes workplace assessment. MoreCPD does not claim to award the complete Care Certificate through e-learning alone, provide the regulated Level 2 Adult Social Care Certificate qualification, or assess workplace competence.
Learning disability, autism and specialist learning
Providers should check current guidance and evidence requirements for their service. MoreCPD does not claim general online awareness satisfies a specific requirement or is equivalent to Oliver McGowan training.
Adult social care scope
This page is for adult social care providers. Children’s social care, early years and separately regulated clinical healthcare services have different frameworks and should not assume this guidance or course selection applies.

Online learning and workplace competence
Online learning can support awareness, induction, knowledge updates, completion records and certificates. Providers may still need local induction, practical instruction, supervision, observation and assessment. Completion is not proof of competence.
Keep care staff training records together
From Starter upwards, the manager LMS supports assignments, progress, certificates and renewal information. Completion is not proof of practical competence.

Adult social care staff training questions
What training do adult social care staff need?
There is no universal course list. Needs depend on the service, role, people supported, risks, local procedures, current guidance and the arrangements of the relevant UK nation and regulator.
Can care staff complete training online?
Online learning can support awareness, induction and knowledge updates. It does not replace workplace induction, practical instruction, supervision or assessment where those are needed.
Does MoreCPD provide the Care Certificate?
No Care Certificate course is displayed unless an exact live public course and route can be verified. MoreCPD does not claim to award the complete Care Certificate through e-learning alone.
Is the Care Certificate a qualification?
The Care Certificate is an induction framework with workplace assessment. It should not be confused with the regulated Level 2 Adult Social Care Certificate qualification.
Does CQC approve MoreCPD courses?
MoreCPD does not claim CQC approval or endorsement. In England, providers remain responsible for meeting the arrangements and evidence applicable to their service.
What does CQC Regulation 18 say about staffing?
Regulation 18 is England-specific and concerns suitably qualified, competent, skilled and experienced staff. Check the current CQC regulation and your service arrangements; this page is not legal or inspection advice.
Does training meet learning-disability and autism requirements?
Not automatically. Providers must check current guidance and evidence requirements applying to their service. Online awareness should not be presented as satisfying a specific requirement without formal verification.
Is MoreCPD training equivalent to Oliver McGowan training?
No. MoreCPD does not claim equivalence to Oliver McGowan training or any named specialist programme.
Can different care roles have different assignments?
Yes. From Starter upwards, the manager LMS supports staff and course assignments so teams can receive learning relevant to their responsibilities.
Can managers track certificates and renewals?
Yes. Team plans provide completion records, certificate tracking, expiry information and renewal reminders through the manager LMS from Starter upwards.
Is practical competence assessed by MoreCPD?
No. Online completion is evidence of course completion, not proof of workplace competence. Providers must arrange observation, supervision or assessment where appropriate.
How much does care provider staff training cost?
Solo is £18 monthly or £180 annually for one learner; Starter £45/£450 for up to 10; Growth £95/£950 for 11–30; Business £195/£1,950 for 31–75; Enterprise 76+ is bespoke. Prices are before VAT and every plan has a 12-month commitment.
Can MoreCPD support several care locations?
Contact us to discuss your requirements. This page does not promise unverified multi-site administration, central reporting or manager-permission functionality.
Are IOSH and Mental Health First Aid included?
No. Need accredited training too? Mental Health First Aid and IOSH training can be added alongside your Staff Training Subscription.
Is this page for children’s services or clinical healthcare?
This page is for adult social care providers. Children’s social care, early years and separately regulated clinical healthcare services have different frameworks and should not assume this guidance or course selection applies to them.
