Certain specialist care roles require very specific qualifications and experience. Whilst other CareGiver roles offer all the necessary training and experience in-house. So it is possible to become a professional care worker with no previous experience in the sector.
A university degree is not always required. However, courses such as Care Assistant/Support Worker or Health and Social Care will be useful. Having an intermediate apprenticeship or advanced apprenticeship may also be required. Also, the hiring company can also have other training requirements.
