Regulating training - An Introduction

NISCC has a statutory responsibility to set standards and approve training for social work education and training at qualifying and post qualifying levels in NI. We approve and monitor social work training programmes to ensure our required standards are being met, and that social workers are equipped with the knowledge and skills to deliver quality services that meet the needs of service users and their carers.

All registered social workers must provide evidence of their continuing professional learning and development and demonstrate their fitness to practise in order to maintain their professional Registration with NISCC. We regulate Post Qualifying Social Work Education and Training to ensure it supports qualified social workers to develop their knowledge and skills throughout their professional career.

This section will give you information about the social work training we approve in NI and the NISCC Quality Assurance Framework we use to regulate social work education and training at qualifying and post qualifying levels in NI.
