New explainer videos to support learning

We’ve created two short explainer videos to support your learning. The videos, designed for the social work, social care and children and young people workforce, as well as members of the public, explain who we are, what we do and what it means to be registered with us.

Who we are and what we do

This video gives a clear overview of our role as the regulator for the social work, social care and children and young people workforce explaining our work to uphold professional standards and protect people who use social services across Scotland.

 

 

What does registration mean for you

Our second video focuses on registration and explains who should register and why, the benefits of professional registration and your responsibilities as a registered worker to maintain your registration.

 

 

Supporting your learning

Together these videos form part of our ongoing commitment to support a trusted, skilled, confident and valued workforce.

They can be used at team meetings, as part of staff training and induction, as well as sharing with people you care for and their families to help them understand more about your role and responsibilities.

We encourage everyone to watch, share and use the videos to support understanding and discussion across the sector.
