The Government has decided that the Adult Social Care Training and Development Fund will not be continued.
This means that funding for the Level 2 Adult Social Care Certificate is no longer available.
In a statement made by Stephen Kinnock, Minister of State for Care, it reads:
“We are committed in our support for the Adult Social Care Workforce. Our long-term plans will include a new deal for care workers through a Fair Pay Agreement. We will also take steps to create a National Care Service underpinned by national standards, with the aim of delivering consistency of care across the country.”
Despite this decision, Gateway Qualifications wants to reassure you that our qualification is ready to be rolled out. In our recent webinar, we highlighted the significance of this qualification, its benefits to both learners and the sector, and discussed alternative options for funding.
