Joint venture between BILD and Heinemann
New Induction Award books
BILD and Heinemann have together produced learning materials for the new
Induction Award which has replaced the LDAF qualification. The new
qualification, which should be completed by all staff new to working with people
with learning disabilities, links directly to the Common Induction Standards set
out by Skills for Care and mandatory units of the S/NVQ in Health and Social
Care, giving them a real focus on supporting people with learning disabilities.
Four study books will meet the learning outcomes for each of the four units:
- Principles of learning disability support
- Your role as a learning disability worker
- Health and safety in a learning disability service
- Protecting people who have a learning disability from abuse
The study books cover levels 2 and 3 of the Induction Award and provide
underpinning knowledge for learners working towards the S/NVQ in Health and
Social Care.
An accompanying trainer pack includes session plans and a DVD containing
activity sheets, PowerPoint slides, video clips and pdfs of all four study
books.
The books and the trainer pack are available to purchase.
