PDA in Health and Social Care Supervision

PDA in Health & Social Care Supervision SCQF Level 7
The PDA in Health and Social Care Supervision at SCQF Level 7 is a certified qualification, delivered in a similar way to the SVQs. The awards are designed to enhance skills and achieve certification in a relatively short period of time. The qualification is ideal for those who do not wish to do the full SVQ but still want a specific certified qualification for their role.

This was created to meet the requirements of social service workers who are registered with the Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC) at support or practitioner level, and who are now in a supervisory role requiring additional qualifications.

This qualification is designed for employees who are in their first-line-management role and who provide supervision, support and guidance to other staff. Examples of possible job titles include senior care workers, senior support workers and senior day-care workers in services for older people, mental health, home care and housing support.
