Diploma Success for Jessica Cotton

Congratulations to Jessica Cotton who has achieved a Level 5 Diploma in Leadership for Health and Social Care.  She will now proudly use her qualification and the skills she has gained in her current role as a Registered Manager for Dignus Health Care in Birmingham.

At the age of 16, Jessica originally began studying Level 2 in Health and Social Care and then naturally progressed to her previous role in another firm as a Team Leader.  She embarked on Level 5 in Leadership for Health and Social Care Apprenticeship in 2014 within her current role and found it extremely fulfilling. At each stage of her Apprenticeship training, CWCT worked closely with her to ensure she had the right level of support and guidance

The Level 5 Diploma is a highly recognized qualification designed to offer students an opportunity to build both their managerial and care skills.  The Apprenticeships fulfils the regulatory requirement for those looking to become managers of children’s homes and adult’s residential and domiciliary services.  It is aimed at people already working in health and social care, assistant or deputy managers or managers. 

Diana Jackson, Health and Social Care Sector Lead at CWCT said: “We are extremely proud of Jessica’s achievements and we wish her the best of luck in her next stages of her career.  At CWCT we pride ourselves in being able to support our students with a high quality of service with the on and off job learning in order to maximize the quality of the skills they gain.

“An Apprenticeship is a real job which is supported by an individually designed skill set and development programme.  Throughout all Apprenticeships, new or existing staff of any age can gain the knowledge, practical experience and wider skills to make a real difference in the workplace.  However, the way the government funds apprenticeships in England is changing as some employers will be required to contribute to an Apprenticeship Levy. 

“Currently, there is also an incentive of £1,000 available for employers who recruit a young person aged 16 to 18, so please get in touch with us to find out how Apprenticeships can help in the future growth of your business.”
