Frequently Asked Questions
Can I gain the Care Certificate 100% online?
The care certificate has two parts, the knowledge part and the competence part. The knowledge part you can complete using the ProTrainings video online course or in a class course nationwide and the competence part you complete in the workplace. The only exception is the CPR module which can be simulated in the class. Phone 01206 805359.
I want to complete a short practical module after completing the online course, is this possible?
We have a network of over 1000 approved and monitored instructors to deliver a short skill training session nationwide or we can come to your workplace to deliver the training. This blended training saves class time and provides the same qualification. Contact us on 01206 805359 to discuss your options.
What is CPD and why is having Certified CPD important?
CPD stands for Continuous Professional Development and is required in many business sectors. Even if you do not require a set CPD credit level, having Certifed CPD ensures the quality of training. ProTrainings are the highest gold standard of CPD ensuring that all courses are externally verified and mapped to the highest levels.
What is "SCORM ready" and will courses run on a LMS?
SCORM Ready means that online courses can run on any compatible Learning Management System (LMS). SCORM courses run seamlessly on your existing LMS system without a separate login so staff only login using the existing company system. ProTrainings online courses have an advanced SCORM ready system to give more features than any other company.
