“Had a great experience with Younique Talent. I enrolled in one of their vocational training courses in Heywood and the support from the tutors was excellent throughout. The trainers were knowledgeable, friendly, and made the learning environment really comfortable. The course content was practical and helped build confidence for working in the industry. Definitely recommend for anyone looking for beauty training near Manchester, barbering courses in the UK, or accredited vocational training programmes.”

Frequently Asked Questions

What qualifications do I need to start a health and social care course?

Most of our entry-level and Level 1 health and social care courses have no formal entry requirements. Some Level 2 programmes may require basic literacy and numeracy. If you're unsure which level is right for you, contact us and we'll guide you to the right starting point.

How long do the courses take?

Course duration varies by level. Awareness and Level 1 courses typically take 2–4 hours. Level 2 programmes range from 4–8 hours of self-paced online learning. Apprenticeship and blended pathways run over a structured programme period agreed with the employer or school.

Are your health and social care courses accredited?

Yes. Our courses are accredited through AQA (Centre No. 84996) and CPD-recognised. Certificates issued on completion are accepted by UK employers, care providers, and local authorities as evidence of training and competence.

Can employers enrol multiple staff members?

Yes. Employers can set up a business account to manage training across their entire team. Business accounts include centralised progress tracking, certificate management, automated renewal reminders, and bundled pricing for larger groups.

Is funding available for health and social care training?

Funded routes are available for eligible learners, including young people aged 14–19, learners with SEND, and those accessing government-backed schemes such as Skills Bootcamps. Contact us to confirm eligibility and available options for your situation.

Can I study online and get a recognised certificate?

Yes. All courses are available online and can be completed at your own pace, on any device. On successful completion, you receive a digital certificate — AQA-accredited or CPD-recognised — that you can download, share with employers, and use for compliance records.

Do you offer health and social care training for young people?

Yes. Through our alternative provision and funded programmes, we support young people aged 14–19 — including those with SEND or those at risk of exclusion — with structured vocational pathways in health and social care, leading to AQA qualifications and progression routes.
