are Learning, we offer free online leadership and management courses designed for people working across the UK's health and social care sector?

No. We do not offer free online leadership and management courses. The Care Manager Diploma – Fast Track Level 5 Health and Social Care Management (8 Months) is a paid, OfQual regulated qualification designed for professionals ready to step into a registered manager role. While free courses exist for general awareness, they do not provide the accredited evidence required by the CQC or Care Inspectorate for registration. Our programme costs GBP 1250 and delivers the specific, job-ready skills in safeguarding, rota management, and inspection readiness that free resources cannot match. We focus on career progression, not generic theory. If you need a free introductory resource, we recommend checking local council training portals, but for the registered manager qualification, this diploma is the targeted, accredited path.
