The problem
Certificates say your team attended. Inspectors ask whether they're competent.
At some point on inspection day, the conversation reaches training. The inspector doesn't ask whether your staff sat in a room. They ask what evidence you hold that your staff can do the job safely.
The question you can’t evidence
Most providers answer with attendance certificates and completion logs. Under the Single Assessment Framework, that is no longer enough — inspectors look for evidence that staff can demonstrate competence in practice.
eLearning completion isn’t competence
CQC’s State of Care reports have repeatedly flagged over-reliance on eLearning. A finished module proves someone clicked through — not that they can do the task safely on a real shift.
Training that doesn’t stick
Skills fade fast without follow-up. If nobody tests what stuck — and nobody observes practice on the floor — the training day becomes a certificate on a shelf, not a change in care.
What you receive
The paperwork, back with you the same week
Your registered manager should not have to chase a training provider for records. Every booking — every course, every time — produces the same set of documents, and they arrive the same week:
Certificate of completion for every delegate, issued on the day
Competency record opened for every delegate within 48 hours
Personal action plan for every delegate to take away
CPD record entry for each delegate’s own portfolio
Trainer credentials documented for your records
Training summary report for the home, the same week
You can see it before you book — a sample certificate and a sample competency record are available today as PDFs.
A delegate certificate — issued on the day of training
A competency record — what was assessed, how, and the outcome
The Action Pack toolkit — the quick reference your staff keep within reach

Sample pages only — partial, watermarked extracts. The full set is produced per session, and the signed register, CPD entries and the summary report for the home are part of it.
Want proof it changed practice, not just that it happened? Coming soon
The Compliance Confidence Cycle adds ten weeks of checks after the training day, and an indexed pack for your CQC evidence. The Compliance Confidence Cycle is coming soon.
Your manager tells us what the home needs and every delegate tells us where they are starting from. The day is built from those answers.
1
Prepare
Tell us about your setting, your team and your CQC situation. We tailor the session — scenarios, depth and pace — and you approve the plan before anyone arrives.
2
Train and assess
Face-to-face at your setting. Group discussion, hands-on practice and real-time competency assessment — your staff practise, they don’t just listen.
3
Document it
Within the same week you receive the signed attendance register, a competency record per delegate, a CPD entry for each of them, your trainer’s credentials and a summary report for the home.
Three steps, on one day, at your own setting — prepare from your answers, train and assess every person individually, then hand the paperwork back the same week. Every course on this site runs this way.
Courses
Start with the problem you're trying to solve
Six of our 37 courses — each delivered at your setting for one flat session fee, up to 15 delegates.
Clinical depth from the MPharm. Delivery built to hold a room.
Most providers hand you a certificate. Life Care Training hands you a competency record for every person in the room.
Life Care Training is clinically led — every clinical course is developed and signed off by an MPharm-qualified clinical lead. Years of training care teams across London and Kent kept surfacing the same gap — so the company was built around the session itself, where every delegate is assessed on what they can actually demonstrate, and the record of it comes back to you.
Delegates keep using the same word about the sessions: engaging. Every trainer holds the Level 3 Award in Education and Training or higher, and meets the same published bar before they set foot in your training room.

Audited delivery method
The honest line: CQC does not register or approve training providers — no provider can truthfully claim “CQC approved” status. We say only what we can evidence: training mapped to CQC quality statements, documented in writing.
The training was very good and well organised. The trainer explained everything clearly and the practical part was really helpful. I feel more confident and prepared to apply what I learned in practice.
Care ProfessionalLondon
The tutor delivered the training in a clear, professional, and engaging manner. All topics were explained thoroughly, with practical examples that made the learning easy to understand and apply. I would strongly recommend this trainer and training provider to others.
Care ProfessionalKent
I am grateful for the training. It will impact positively within my profession. The practical sessions were excellent and the trainer made sure everyone participated.

Before you book
Questions managers ask before booking
No. Every session is interactive — group discussion, practical exercises and scenario-based learning. Your staff practise skills, they don’t just listen to a lecture. And every delegate is individually assessed on what they can demonstrate, not on having attended. If you want a certificate and nothing else, we’re not the right fit.
CQC’s State of Care reports have consistently flagged concerns about over-reliance on eLearning. Under the Single Assessment Framework, inspectors look for evidence of competence — not just completion. Face-to-face training with practical demonstration and individual competency assessment gives you that evidence. eLearning alone doesn’t.
That’s exactly why the flat session fee matters. You pay per session, not per head. Bring up to 15 delegates — £650 divided by 15 works out at under £44 per person — and if three new starters join next month, we train them in the same session at the same price. Compare that with per-delegate eLearning costs multiplied by turnover, and face-to-face training is often more cost-effective.
Certificates are issued on the day, and every delegate leaves with a personal action plan. Within the same week you receive the signed attendance register, a competency record for each delegate, a CPD entry for their own portfolio, your trainer’s documented credentials and a summary report for the home. Sample documents are available now, before you book.
