We’ll be joined by the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) and NHS Business Services Authority (NHSBSA) to share key information about accessing funding for staff training through the Adult Social Care Learning and Development Support Scheme (LDSS) in 2025-26.
Sarah Fenton, Head of Adult Social Care skills, learning and development at DHSC, will talk about why this support is so important for the sector and how it aligns with DHSC’s broader priorities.
Understanding how the fund will work in 2025-26 will help social care providers to help shape their learning and development offers for the year and maximise their available budgets.
You’ll also hear from a social care provider who claimed LDSS funding in 2024-25, and their experience of the process and the benefits.
The webinar will provide a detailed walkthrough of the practical aspects of accessing LDSS funding, including:
- The eligibility criteria and evidence requirements for making claims through the scheme
- How the funding can be used, including eligible training courses and qualifications
- The process for accessing the fund and submitting claims
- A demonstration of the online claims service.
Who should attend?
- Managers and decision makers in social care providing organisations
- Administrative staff in social care providing organisations
- HR/Learning and development staff in social care providing organisations
- Social care training providers
- Staff in local authorities with responsibilities for supporting social care, such as workforce development leads or quality monitoring officers.
