Scotland’s National Induction Framework (NIF) for Social Care is transforming the way new staff learn and develop, according to the latest six-month evaluation report.

We’ve made changes to the endorsement section of SSSC registration applications to help us learn more about why people apply late and what organisations are doing to manage this.

We’ve updated our guidance for employing 16 and 17-year-olds in social care and made an online version to make it easier for you. 

The Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC) and NHS Education for Scotland (NES) have developed a new National Induction Framework for Social Care.

From 3 May, we’ll start asking a sample of registrants who are due to submit their annual declaration to also provide additional information about how they have completed CPL and demonstrated learning against the core learning elements.
