Children and Young People’s Workforce

The Level 2 Certificate and Level 3 Diploma for the Children and Young People’s Workforce are brand new qualifications.  Before they were introduced, people wanting to work in various jobs within the workforce would undertake completely different qualifications. The government wanted to address this as part of its goal to create a unified workforce which shares a common identity and values. The qualifications will also help ensure that a common professional language is shared by practitioners.
