CECOPS Approved Training Courses now available, nationwide!

CECOPS Approved Training Courses are now available on Commissioning & Governance, Service Provision and Clinical and Professional Responsibilities, and are running at locations across the UK.

…I generally found the training to be extremely useful and enjoyed the day. It put flesh on the bones and helped me understand, firstly, how the Code would relate to our business and, secondly, the practical issues involved in implementing the Code… Douglas Armour, Director, Community Equipment Services, British Red Cross

CECOPS Approved Training Courses are designed to give you an understanding of the Code requirements and help you comply with them; courses cover the content of each Code Standard, relating it to your work environment. Courses are suitable for all areas where disability equipment is commissioned, assessed for and provided e.g. NHS organisations and Local Authorities, care homes, hospices, home care providers and special schools.

As a Nurse working as a Clinical Advisor within an Integrated Community Equipment Team I felt the content of the course was really useful, and I would recommend that other Nurses attend. Adele Brunsdon, ICES Clinical Advisor Nurse, Gloucestershire

I came away from the day with the conviction that formal standards were necessary and that it would give a framework for different authorities to measure themselves by. Hazel Gallagher, OT TCES Project, Middlesbrough

Courses run on a regular basis at various locations across the UK. Special arrangements can also be made for group training to be delivered on your own premises.
