Course Library
A training library from day one
Nest Learn comes with a ready-to-use catalogue of core care training, so providers are not starting from an empty LMS. Built-in online courses can be assigned through Learning Paths, tracked in the Matrix, and evidenced through completion records and certificates. Every course is independently accredited by CareCPD, and completion certificates can be verified with CareCPD directly.

The platform
Everything care teams need to manage training properly
01
Assign training clearly
Use Learning Paths and one-off assignments so managers know exactly who has been given what. Suggestions help managers decide, but assignments are always confirmed.
02
Track gaps across every Home
The Training Matrix separates who needs training, who needs assignment, who is overdue, and who needs a face-to-face booking.
03
Online provided, face-to-face tracked
Nest Learn's built-in online courses are ready to assign. For your own in-person training, it tracks the sessions, bookings, attendance, and outcomes — even though the practical course itself is delivered by you.
04
Give staff a simple next action
Staff see what to start, continue, renew, or attend next without needing to understand the manager workflow behind it.
05
Keep evidence audit-ready
Completion history, certificates, evidence revisions, corrections, and audit logs stay attached to the record.
06
Stay on top with notifications
Staff training emails, session reminders, welcome emails, and weekly manager digests keep the right people informed.
Two views, one system
Built for managers and staff
Managers get the operational picture. Staff get a clear next step. Both work from the same training records, so nothing falls between the two.

Training Matrix
Know exactly where training stands
The Matrix gives managers a clear reporting view across staff, Homes, and courses. It shows Training Status separately from face-to-face Booking State, so teams can tell the difference between overdue training, missing assignments, and sessions that need booking.
- Staff rows, course columns, status at a glance
- Complete, Overdue, Expired, Needs booking, Not assigned
- Filter by Home, course category, and status

Face-to-face training
Online courses provided. Face-to-face kept on track.

- Record attendance outcomes
- Attach evidence and make manager corrections
