Have your say: Care Certificate standards
In partnership with Skills for Health and Health Education England, we’re inviting you to take part in a survey to consider potential updates to the Care Certificate standards.
The survey should take approximately 20 to 30 minutes to complete, and will close at 12:00 on 16 August 2021.
Following evaluation of this survey, recommendations for updates will be made. In the meantime, please continue to use the current standards.
