Leadership in Care 2024 Programme
Open for applications. Deadline is 5pm on Monday 15th July 2024.
After a very successful first year, we are delighted to be working with well-respected social care trainers dialogue to offer a second leadership programme for care staff in senior roles. We recognise that the formal level 3 and 5 qualifications don’t offer opportunities to deepen strategic thinking and reflect on what it means to be leading social care provision. We have put together a programme aimed at developing new skills and providing a rich environment to grow alongside peers in similar roles.
The nine day programme runs between September 2024 and June 2025 and will be held in Solihull, West Midlands. NASS is covering £700 of the costs to be able to offer the full programme for a cost of £2,500 per delegate. This includes access to individual psychometric assessment and feedback and a bespoke ongoing CPD plan.
The programme is only open to NASS members. To read more about the programme and how to apply, please follow the links below.
