Exclusive Skills for Care registered manager members webinar | Overview of audits for different service types
Thursday 22 February 2024 | 14:00 – 15:00 | Zoom
In partnership with Quality Compliance Systems (QCS), join us at our first-ever joint webinar, exclusively available for registered manager members.
We will provide an overview of audits for different service types, how audits are used most effectively, and the range of support and practical advice available for social care providers from Skills for Care and QCS. You’ll also learn how effective auditing helps you demonstrate high-quality, safe, and person-centred care, good governance, and continuous improvement.
With the roll-out of the CQC’s new Single Assessment Framework, audits will become more important for social care providers in demonstrating how they keep people who draw on care and support safe, develop a cycle of continuous improvement, and have good governance in place in their service.
This is an exclusive webinar for registered manager members only.

Skills for Care: Adult Social Care Workforce Data Set (ASC-WDS) demo & Workforce Development Funding information session - your questions answered!
Wednesday 10th January 3-4pm on MS Teams
The Adult Social Care Workforce Data Set (ASC-WDS) helps providers to manage their workforce data and provides crucial intelligence to key decision makers such as Government, DHSC, CQC and local authorities. It also gives employers access to safe and free management of staff and training records and the ability to benchmark your workplace against similar providers.
The Workforce Development Fund supports the provision of high-quality care and the continuing professional development (CPD) of staff across the adult social care sector by providing a contribution towards the costs of vocational learning. The fund allows you to claim back money towards the costs of paid staff completing a broad range of adult social care qualifications, learning programmes and digital learning modules.
If you are interested to know more about ASC-WDS, are planning to update your account, haven’t looked at it for a while or want to claim Workforce Development Funding and meet the eligibility criteria this is the session for you! Come along to have a live guided tour and hear all about the many benefits and ask any questions. The session will be hosted by Rachel Reid, Marianne Davis Skills for Care locality Managers in Surrey, Berkshire, Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire and Liz Bailey Workforce Development Funding local lead.
This is a local session for providers across the Berks, Ox, Bucks and Surrey area.

Data Security Protection Toolkit, In-person Events

Supporting Care Providers with their Digital Transformation Journeys...
As you know we are working hard to promote and publicise the DSPT within the provider market across Berks, Oxon & Bucks, as well as providing tailored support to help providers complete the toolkit.
We are making great progress, and since starting the project 2 years ago we have moved from 2% of CQC registered Adult Social Care providers across BOB having an in-date toolkit, to 67.77%. Having said that, this still leaves over 30% of the provider market without a toolkit, and information potentially at risk. We are doing all we can to target and support these providers.
We're pleased to let you know that we are hosting 2 FREE face to face events in November and we would be most grateful of your help publicising these to providers – via email, at network meetings, via telephone or face to face. However you can get the messaging out there! See flyer attached here.
Navigating Digitisation for the Tech Terrified
Thursday 16th November, 1pm-4:15pm @ Thame Barns Centre, Thame, OX9 3AJ
Perfect for providers who are early on in their digital journey and want to know more about how and why they should move forwards with digitisation. We’ll cover everything from the basics of data and cyber security, to how digitisation is linked to regulation and the all important CQC inspections. As well as hearing real life examples of how digitisation has transformed other adult social care businesses.
Guest Speakers include: CQC National Regulatory Policy Managers, DataGuard – Data & Cyber security Specialists, BOB ICB Digital Social Care Records Team.

Walk Through the Data Security and Protection Toolkit (DSPT) – in-person workshop
Wednesday 22nd November 2023, 11am – 2pm @ Thame Barns Centre, Thame, OX9 3AJ
Providers can bring their laptop and work through the toolkit question by question whilst enjoying some tasty refreshments. This is a chance for providers to complete their toolkit as much as they can and take away a tailored action plan to help them complete it in their own time.
