Care and support

Learning for Living

Learning for Living is an online learning programme for carers.

It builds on the skills that carers and former carers have developed in their caring roles. It also helps to build confidence and develop computer skills, and could pave the way for further study or a return to a paid job.

Learning for Living is a combination of an online learning programme for carers and a qualification. There are two parts: the qualification known as the ‘Certificate in Personal Development & Learning for Unpaid Carers’ and the learning resource known as 'Learning for Living'.

This is the first qualification and learning resource designed specifically for carers by carers. The certificate is supported by Learning for Living. Learners who do not want to take the qualification can opt for doing just the resource.
