Benefit Essentials covers the structure of the welfare system and the difference between contributory, non-contributory, and means-tested benefits, and the eligibility requirements for each of these benefits.
The training also includes a deep dive into disability benefits, providing participants with the tools and knowledge necessary to assist disabled people and/or clients with health conditions that affect their everyday lives.
Participants on this course will have exclusive access to discounts and resources tailored specifically by Disability Rights UK and CPAG, including a free 1-month trial of AskCPAG and a 10% discount on the Disability Rights Handbook (print and online).
Disability Rights UK and CPAG have a long history of successful collaboration. Both organisations are committed to supporting disabled people, and they share a common goal of ensuring that everyone has access to the financial support and resources they need to thrive.
Additional training courses for intermediate advisers to be announced soon!
