TEAM LEADING

Becoming a successful team leader within a care environment can be difficult; heading a group of people is a role that requires a number of different skills. It requires you to be authoritative but fair, a leader but also one of the team and within the care sector, there is the added responsibility of ensuring that the people being cared for are both protected and nurtured.

A qualification in team leading helps you to develop your abilities when directing and co-ordinating people. The qualification covers various aspects including; managing your own resources, organising your team’s work, communicating information and developing performance.

Throughout the qualification you will develop the skills required to enable your team to excel and reach its full potential, whilst allowing you to take on more responsibility and progress your own career.

Entry Requirements

Although there are no formal requirements for entry to an NVQ or Apprenticeship programme, in order to succeed and get the most out of the programme, you need to be enthusiastic, committed and hardworking.

Length of Programme

There is no set timescale for our programmes as it depends on the individual make-up of your qualification (unit selection), the support of your employer and your ability; however, the majority of JHP Care learners complete their programme within 12 months.
