Training at the Academy

The Social Care Academy Learning Portal has a lot of training.

All training is either free, or the funding is reclaimable.

To access the learning portal, you need to be 16 and over, and living or working in Staffordshire or Stoke-on-Trent.

We also have instructions on how to access the learning portal available. 

 

The training library will be updated the first week of each month.
