National Star now offers the Oliver McGowan Tier 2 Mandatory Training, delivered by experienced trainers alongside experts with lived experience. This interactive, in-person course gives delegates the opportunity to learn directly from autistic people and people with learning disabilities, helping to build a deeper understanding of their experiences and support needs.
Suitable for individuals, teams and organisations, we offer individual places, group bookings and bespoke training packages to meet a range of requirements. The course is designed to equip health and social care professionals with the knowledge, skills and confidence needed to provide safe, compassionate and person-centred support. Delegates will learn how to make reasonable adjustments, communicate effectively and deliver high-quality care that improves outcomes for autistic people and people with learning disabilities.
This training is particularly important following the introduction of the Health and Care Act 2022, which requires CQC-registered providers to ensure staff receive learning disability and autism training appropriate to their role. The Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training is the nationally recognised standard developed to meet this requirement and support organisations in delivering safer, more informed and higher-quality care.
