We can support you to hire the right people and retain them by making values-based recruitment work for you through our dedicated programmes.

We currently offer the following programmes:

 

Recruit to retain programme

Are you looking to significantly improve staff retention, enhance workforce wellbeing, and recruit individuals who stay and grow with your organisation? Our recruit to retain programme offers practical, values-based strategies to strengthen recruitment and support staff development. This programme is available either via open access or as a comissioned product.

The Care Quality Commission’s (CQC's) focus on safe and effective staffing is deeply connected to how well an organisation recruits, inducts, and supports its staff, all of which must be grounded in the organisation's core values. This virtual three-day interactive programme provides practical tools and hands-on experiences to seamlessly integrate these principles into your daily operations.

The open access course will start in February 2025 and costs £499 +VAT per person.

Valuable people programme

This programme focuses on addressing the recruitment challenges encountered by the adult social care sector, placing an emphasis on ensuring employers develop sustainable policies and practices to create a supportive and values-led workplace culture to increase staff retention.

The programme includes three interactive seminars: 

  • Digital and practical recruitment solutions
    This seminar is designed support those involved in recruitment to become familiar with a range of social media and digital recruitment solutions to optimise recruitment practices and reach their target audience. 
  • Values based interviewing
    This practical session explores different question styles and probing interview techniques to assess a candidate’s values and behaviours.
  • Valuable conversations
    This seminar uses established theories and real-life examples to explore a new approach to constructive conversations, creating open and positive places to work, helping to retain staff.

These are followed by a personalised data retention report based on your Adult Social Care Workforce Data Set (ASC-WDS) account showing factors that significantly affect turnover with recommendations for improving practice.

You’ll also receive tailored one-to-one support and action planning to personalise approaches and embed and review the learning and skills gained from the programme. There’s also a peer support follow up session.

 

This programme can be commissioned by local authorities or integrated care systems on behalf of providers in their area.

Cost: £43,074+ VAT for up to 14 participants

Delivery method: Virtual via Zoom or Teams
