Oliver McGowan Training: From Specialist Training to Evidence in Practice

Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training was introduced to improve understanding of Autism and Learning Disability across Health and Social Care.

For Providers, it plays a vital role in building staff knowledge, supporting reasonable adjustments, and strengthening person-centred care for Autistic people and people with a Learning Disability.

At Care Business Associate Training (CBAT), we deliver specialist Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training designed specifically for Health and Social Care Teams, including both Tier 1 and Tier 2 Courses.

But Training doesn’t stop at completion.

Providers need confidence that Learning is truly understood, embedded, and reflected in everyday practice. That’s why CBAT has partnered with Fulcrum Care Ltd. To focus not only on delivering high-quality Training, but also on supporting the wider impact it has across Services.

This includes strengthening how Learning feeds into Care Planning, Staff Supervision, Quality Assurance, Governance, and overall CQC Readiness.

The Oliver McGowan Training is relevant across Care Homes, Nursing Homes, Domiciliary Care, Supported Living, Learning Disability, Autism, and Complex Care Services.

Because completing Training is just the beginning, the real value is in how it translates into Safer, more informed, and more person-centred Care.

🌟 Training that people actually look forward to attending.

There’s nothing better than hearing feedback like this from our clients. At CBAT, we believe training should be engaging, practical, and leave people feeling more confident in their role.

A huge thank you to Loreen McGeoghan, Home Manager at The Hillingdon Care Company, for sharing her experience of training with Timi.

When staff are excited to learn, everyone benefits – from the team delivering care to the people receiving it.

On 7 June, Christian Eriksen collapsed on the pitch for the second time in five years.

Thankfully, he recovered. But it was a stark reminder that Cardiac Arrest can happen to anyone, anywhere and with no warning.

In 2021, it was the people around him that made the difference. Trained Teammates and Medical Staff who acted immediately and kept him alive until help arrived.

Any one of us could find ourselves in that moment. However, would the people around you know what to do?

We have written about what this moment means for Workplaces across the UK. Read the full blog below.

The UK is bringing in an under-16s Social Media ban.

This morning, Keir Starmer confirmed the UK will raise the minimum age for major Social Media Platforms to 16, following Australia's lead.

For anyone working in Health and Social Care, this is more than a headline.

It firmly establishes children's online lives as a Safeguarding issue, and brings newer risks like AI Companion Chatbots and Stranger Contact through gaming into the conversation.

Our latest blog breaks down what's been announced, which platforms are affected, what the critics are saying and six practical steps frontline staff can take right now.

Read it here ⬇️

The UK's under-16 social media ban is confirmed. Find out when it starts, which apps are included, how it will be enforced, and what it means for safeguarding.
