CARE ACADEMY

I started on the Care Certificate two years ago. My competency record moved with me when I changed employer, so I did not repeat a single module — I went straight onto the deputy programme.

EMPLOYER

The inspection pack took a fortnight of my life every year. Now it is a button. The inspector asked for medication competencies and I had them dated and signed in front of her.

IMG ACADEMY

The circuits told me exactly which two domains were losing me marks. I fixed those, resat and passed. Nobody else showed me the domain scores.
