Oliver McGowan Training

Why is this training required?

In July 2022 an amendment was made to the Health and Social Care Act which meant all health and social care staff in CQC regulated services should receive mandatory learning disability and autism training appropriate to their role within the organisation.

The Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training on Learning Disability and Autism has been co-developed with people with a learning disability and autistic people.

The training course is named after Oliver McGowan, whose tragic, avoidable death shone a light on the need for health and social care staff to receive better training.

We are currently refining the course detail to appear on this page which will include duration, course content and cost.
