Practice Learning Qualifications (Social Services)

The Practice Learning Qualifications (Social Services) were formally launched on 6 February 2008 at an event jointly hosted by the SSSC and SQA (Scottish Qualifications Authority) and held at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre.

The proceedings were chaired by Garry Coutts, Convenor of the SSSC and the formal launch was led by the Minister for Children and Early Years, Adam Ingram.

The audience represented a wide range of stakeholders from the social services sector who particularly appreciated an input from Aman Lee, a service user who had contributed both to the development and the approval of the PLQ(SS).  The launch is a major milestone in the progress of the new award and new developments are anticipated over the coming months.
