What’s in the course?

Caring Counts in the Workplace is structured as five sessions. As you progress through the course you will be invited to reflect on the carers’ experiences together with your own experiences and role as manager. The tasks within each session are designed to help you reflect on the following themes:

• identifying carers’ skills, qualities and attributes
• supporting carers in the workforce
• reflecting on your practice as a manager
• creating an action plan for your workplace.

Each session will take you between one and two hours to complete, depending on the amount of time you spend on the individual tasks and, if you are working with a mentor or within a group, the amount of discussion time you have.
