The Level 4 Preparing for Leadership and Management of Health and Social Care qualification provides the knowledge for managers to take their first step into a leadership role supporting both horizontal and vertical progression on to:
● Level 4 Professional Practice in Health and Social Care
● Level 5 Leadership and Management of Health and Social Care: Practice qualification
This qualification is a requirement in order to access the Level 5 Management of Health and Social Care Practice and will enable registration with Social Care Wales whilst working towards the level 5.

You do not need to be in a management role for this qualification if completed as a stand-alone, however, if completed with immediate progression to level 5 it is essential to be in either a deputy manager or managers position. We are happy to discuss your current role prior to admission and give advice as necessary.
