A Career in Social Care
Description
This digital guide has been developed to support people to consider a career in social care - a career that makes a difference. It includes information on what is social care and why people chose to work in the sector along with information on qualifications, experience required and how to get started and find employment.
Background and Credits
Take time to work through the content and learn about a career in social care. You will hear from social care practitioners and managers talking about why they choose social care along with service users who are being supported by social care practitioners.
The Social Care Council worked with Northern Ireland employers and people who use social care services to co-design and develop this resource. It has been funded by the Department of Health (DoH).
It was first launched at the Social Care Managers Forum in November 2019.
