The SSSC Register opened to its biggest group of workers, support workers in care at home and housing support, just over two years ago. Head of Registration Cheryl Campbell updates us on progress.

We’ve become aware that there is some confusion among employers, learning providers and colleges about whether apprentices need to register with the SSSC.

Did you miss the deadline for support workers in care at home and housing support services to get their registration applications to us on 13 December? If you did our frequently asked questions will help with what to do next.

We’re making good progress with the review of our post registration training and learning (PRTL) process. The feedback on the current process and experience of registrants will help us design a new approach that meets the needs of an increasingly diverse workforce.

We’ve produced a series of new guides for employers that they can use to support their care at home and housing support workers when they apply for SSSC registration.
