This course will equip you with the practical knowledge needed to support families in navigating Universal Credit and avoid potential pitfalls.
One of your key tasks after the arrival of the family will involve supporting them to apply for Universal Credit. You don’t need to become an expert on the benefits system, but it’ll be helpful to know the basics and be aware of any issues that the family might encounter.
This course will equip you with the basic knowledge you need to support a family with making a claim for Universal Credit and understanding the benefits they receive.
