About this course

Our Understanding Your Role Training course aims to provide awareness to help make sure employees know what is expected from them in their job role but also what is not included in your role. Job descriptions will give a good overview of your role but will often not list every task that is expected from you.

The possible responsibilities that might be included in your job role are: providing care & support, working as part of a team, contributing towards activities or respecting confidentiality. As an employee, it is important to understand your companies values, aims and objectives.

Standard 1 of the Care Certificate – Understanding your role – requires staff to:

  • Understand their own role
  • Work in ways that have been agreed between them and their employer
  • Understand working relationships in health & social care
  • Work in partnership with others

This course works in partnership with our 14 other awareness courses that make up the Care Certificate.

You can access our free worksheet that has been designed to accompany our online Understanding Your Role Training course. In each section, there is a box for you to
tick when you have watched the relevant slide in our course. You can also take notes that will help you during your practical assessment at work.

This course equips learners with the knowledge that’s required to be put into practice in the workplace, whereby they can do the ‘practical’ part of their training, followed by having the Care Certificate supplied to them by their management as they meet the required standards. These courses provide part of training but practical training is still required to obtain the care certificate.

Compliance

Understanding Your Role in Care the first of 15 standards that are in the Care Certificate. The Care Certificate is an agreed set of standards that set out what is expected of the job roles in the health and social care sector. It forms part of an induction programme that should be covered if you are ‘new to care’. Our courses are used as an educational tool to help provide an understanding and awareness of each standard.

The Care Certificate was developed by Skills for Care, Health Education England and Skills for Health.
