NHS support workers, such as nursing Healthcare Assistants,
Maternity Support Workers, and Therapy Assistants, often provide
the majority of face-to-face care to patients, clients and their
families. This accessible guide explores the issues underpinning
their recruitment, training, management, development and
progression. NHS support workers comprise four out of ten of the
clinical workforce, yet despite their importance they have long
faced barriers that mean they are not able to fully realise their
potential. This is the first book to take a comprehensive look at
this workforce, its history, the policy that shapes its
recruitment, management and deployment, and explains clearly how
their capacity and capability can be safely and effectively
enhanced. Structured around the employment cycle, this text covers
the introduction of Technical Levels, career changes,
apprenticeships, recruitment and selection, informal learning,
learning cultures, widening participation, supervision and
functional skills. Providing practical, evidence-based guidance and
including illustrative case studies, it suggests a range of
interventions to overcome the long-standing barriers to the
effective development and deployment of healthcare support workers.
Drawing on the latest research, and practice, including the
author's own experience, this book is an important resource for all
those educating, managing or recruiting unregistered healthcare
practitioners. It will also provide invaluable guidance to
healthcare support workers interested in progressing their careers.

While substantial advances have been made in the L&D profession
over the last decade, evaluation remains by far the weakest part of
the L&D cycle. Most organisations wish to evaluate the impact
of their investment in training but few do it well, and the lack of
effective methods is one of the key barriers. Complete Training
Evaluation addresses these issues by providing practitioner
friendly but academically robust information and guidance on how to
evaluate all forms of learning and development. It draws on the
author's own multidisciplinary research along with his practical
experience of working with private and public sector organisations
carrying out evaluation. The book provides practitioners with
accessible 'how-to' knowledge and tools to undertake evaluations of
both formal and informal learning. Full of case studies and
practical examples of application of methods and insights, Complete
Training Evaluation equips practitioners with a range of approaches
that can be used depending on the training programme, capacity and
capability. An online supporting resource includes a bank of
evaluation questions grouped around particular aspects of training.
