Programme for Afternoon
Consultation on proposal to consolidate the SSSC Register
Why are we proposing to consolidate the Register?
Currently…
•Register has 18 parts•This is set to increase
Feedback from the sector suggests…
•Structure doesn’t reflect workforce deployment•Some workers need to Register on more than one part•Need for an increasingly flexible workforce
Scope of the consultation
Consultation includes:
•All parts of the Register for social service workers in function related roles
This consultation does not include Register parts for:
X Social workerX Social work studentX Staff of the Care Inspectorate
Overview of our proposal
1. Consolidate the Structure of the Register
•Propose 2 parts: Adult Services & Children’s Services
•Each part would have 4 functional roles:– Manager– Supervisor– Practitioner– Support Worker.
Proposed structure would look like this:
Children’s Services Adult Services
Qualification*
SCQF level Qualification*
SCQF level
Manager BACPSW Degree
360 credits @ level 9
Manager SVQ 4 + 60 credits in management
Level 9
Supervisor SVQ 4 Level 9 Supervisor SVQ 3 + 15 credits in management
Level 7/8
Practitioner SVQ 3HNC
Level 7/8 Practitioner SVQ 3 Level 7/8
Support Worker
SVQ 2NC
Level 6/7 Support Worker
SVQ 2 Level 6/7
*Please note, the qualifications listed are just examples, full lists of the qualifications we accept for Registration are on the SSSC website.
What would this mean in practice?
• Individuals able to move between service settings (within either Adult or Children’s services) without having to re-register, if they remain within the same job function
• Reduce number of people who have to register on 2 parts
• Current qualification requirements would be retained
• Where qualification requirements differ, if moving to a different job role, a condition may be put on your registration
Proposal 2:
Standardise Renewal periods for Registration
•Propose to standardise renewal periods to 5 years
•This would apply to everyone on the proposed 2 new parts of the Register
What would this mean in practice?
Current Renewal Periods Proposed Renewal Periods
Renewal periods vary:
3 year renewals (eg for residential child care workforce, managers in adult day care services)
OR
5 year renewals (eg supervisors in care home services for adults, day care of children workforce)
5 years for all
[All registrants would continue to pay their annual fee]
Proposal 3:
Streamline Post Registration Training and Learning (PRTL) requirements
•PRTL should be completed on an annual basis
•Propose PRTL requirement of 5 days (30 hours) per year.
•This must include 2 days (12 hours) specifically in relation to the protection of vulnerable people
What would this mean in practice?
Standardising PRTL
Current PRTL requirements
Proposed PRTL requirements
Varies for different Register parts:
15 days (90 hours) over 3 year registration period.
OR
10 days (60 hours) over 5 year registration period
5 days (30 hours) each year
Including 2 days focusing on the protection of vulnerable people
What can count for PRTL?
Variety of formal and informal learning opportunities may count towards PRTL, for example:
•Formal training courses•Reading / self directed learning•Supervision/team meetings/development time/work/seminars which demonstrate a reflective approach to learning•Experiential learning/job shadowing Reflecting on learning, and showing how this has helped inform practice is essential.
And finally….next steps for consultation
• Consultation closes 10 October 2012
• SSSC will analyse responses and submit formal report and recommendations to Council
• If Council agrees any changes, then SSSC intends to begin implementation from Spring 2013 onwards
• You views on how best to implement changes are sought in the consultation
