Entry Requirements
- There are no formal entry conditions for this framework. Individuals about to undertake this framework must, however, work in job roles which are appropriate for the framework and which will allow them to gather the evidence necessary for the qualifications and components which form a part of the framework.
- Potential apprentices should be willing to undergo a DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) check. Employers in social care carry out DBS checks, as this is a requirement, and certain offences may disqualify potential apprentices from employment in these sectors and thus automatically preclude them from completing the framework. Potential apprentices should therefore discuss any relevant matters with their employer prior to enrolment.
