Personal social services: development and training strategy 2006-2016

The Strategy gives a direction for the sector for the next 10 years; focusing on improving skills throughout the workforce, increasing confidence in the sector and involving service users and carers in all aspects of workforce development. Committee members will disseminate the strategy to their sectors and raise awareness of the requirements it places on employers and workers. The committee will now explore how to implement the strategy, examining targets and the implications these have for employers.
