Private, Independent and Voluntary Sector Learning and Development
ListenWelcome to PIV social care learning and workforce development.
Here you will find information about the training provided by Bracknell Forest Council to support social care providers in the private, independent and voluntary sector. Our goal is to provide organisations and individuals with a range of courses, qualifications and development opportunities to support staffing this important area.
From 1st April 2011 there will be a charge for attendence on the majority of courses provided, due to a reduction in government grant available to support these events. Details are shown in the PIV training calender for 2011. There will be a charge for non attendence which is double the actual charge for attendence.
Who are these courses for?
Priority will be given to organisations and individuals that are working within a contractual arrangement (including Service Level Agreements) to provide care to adults, children and young people that fall under the auspices of Bracknell Forest Council.
This includes people in receipt of direct payment and their PAs.
In addition places may be offered to other organisations and individuals that are able to demonstrate health and social care outcomes for residents of Bracknell Forest subject to approval by the Central Unit for Learning and Development.
