CareUK deliver care to people who need it in their own homes. They deliver home-based e-learning to their employees who need it. This is an outstanding example of Return on Investment.

The E-learning underpinned a company expansion in a changing regulatory environment that would have been unsupportable without it.

Existing trainer staff were redeployed to higher value training. Staff retention improved by 15%, NVQ Level 2 qualifications delivered in 4 months rather than 10 months, employee expansion of 2,000 a year, trained and assessed for competence immediately on joining.

The investment paid for itself within 6 months but more importantly improved the level of care, simplified compliance, enabled increased recruitment and got people through induction and into profitable work faster.
