Mandatory Training Courses for Care Workers

BVS offers a range of courses for care home and home care staff. These courses are all endorsed by Skills for Care and CPD accredited.

Training that is considered mandatory can be different for different organisations depending on the care environments and service users receiving care.  If you are unsure which courses are mandatory see our blog on mandatory training courses for care workers.

The courses we include in this category are mandatory training courses for both care home and home care staff and are fundamental for meeting CQC training requirements and help meet the general care standards.

The below outlines the mandatory DVD training courses for home care training, care home training and general mandatory training for carers.

Read our blog "Which Training Courses are Mandatory in Social Care?" to learn more about Mandatory Courses for Care Workers.


Each of our DVD courses includes lesson plans, handouts, an assessment quiz and a CPD certificate when passing the course. All our care courses are also available on our CareTutor eLearning portal as interactive video courses, with a comprehensive traffic light training matrix for ease of training management. Our video-based care courses are created in real-life care settings with professional actors, so they are more memorable and understandable than text-based courses.
