Tier 2 Dementia training pilot for Social Care Workforce

Tender description

SCIE will undertake a pilot to test the blended learning approach on 2 of the 12 Tier 2 modules between January 2020 - April 2020. An iterative approach should be taken to ensure that the language and content is context specific and appropriate for the audience. This requires: - Training materials explicitly mapped against 2 of the 12 topics that make up the Tier 2 level of the Dementia Framework, based upon a blended learning approach which would include e-learning modules and support resources for training leads or managers (identified as the preferred approach in the scoping phase). This would take a 'digital first' approach to minimise costs of resources and increase the sustainability of the model. - Fully tested materials with users (both staff and managers) taking an iterative approach to development. The testing and amending will take a staged approach; starting with one care home with detailed feedback; then five care homes; then twenty care homes. - Development of additional training materials as required (where possible, drawing on existing training materials to minimise duplication) - Evaluation of the training approach - Recommendations for the full training programme development
