The Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training
The Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training on Learning Disability and Autism is named after Oliver McGowan, whose death shone a light on the need for health and social care staff to have better training.
The Health and Care Act 2022 introduced a requirement that regulated service providers must ensure their staff receive learning disability and autism training appropriate to their role.
The Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training on Learning Disability and Autism is the standardised training that was developed for this purpose and is the government's preferred and recommended training for health and social care staff.
Take a look below to find out more about the Tier 1 and Tier 2 Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training, and to book your session today.

TIER 2 TRAINING
Tier 2 training is divided in to a morning session on Learning Disabilities and an afternoon session on Autism. The sessions can be delivered on different days, however learners must complete the Learning Disability session prior to completing the Autism session, and must complete both parts to be awarded their badge and certificate.
We offer Tier 2 at our offices in Somerset on a regular basis, and we can also provide training across the country at additional cost.
