The CWDC is launching the Skills Development Framework (SDF), which is designed to assist employers across the sector to cultivate integrated working skills within their organisations.
Each level of the framework defines the skills needed to deliver competent practice for integrated working, and each level is aligned to the level descriptors in the Qualifications and Credit Framework.
At Level 3, for example, skills are outlined under three categories - effective communication and engagement with children, young people and families (covering listening and consultation skills); process-related skills (leading the Common Assessment Framework and the Team Around the Child); skills transferable to/from other workforces at Level 3 (providing excellent customer services and using resources effectively) and knowledge and understanding (effective communication and engagement with children, young people and families).
