tend-trained
tend-trained means quality as well as qualified
A byword for quality in health and social care training, tend-trained professionals offer much more than just practical skills and knowledge.
That’s the easy part. Instead, they also offer the rest of the package – things like teamwork, people skills and how to think creatively and strategically. In other words, how to really excel in the real world of care: the world their trainer has come from.

Careers with heart, skills with purpose
The Career Builders and Skill Builders approach is our signature way of simultaneously looking at the bigger picture, but with a laser focus on detail too.
Whether assessing a provider’s company-wide needs, planning a career-long pathway for an individual, or delivering quick wins with training in essential or niche skills, flexibility is where tend excels. The result? A compelling blend of deeper knowledge and broader competencies in your organisation, enabling better performance, and exceptional care.
Training that’s relevant to your needs, not ours
Expertly tailored training creates highly personalised pathways, providing the major building blocks for progressing careers and fulfilling potential.
Meanwhile, shorter courses fill the gaps in between, delivering the specialist niche skills a particular remit relies on. Learner to leader in every sense, whether you’re a social care support worker, the organisation’s CEO, or hoping to grow from one to the other.
Our sector expertise
My Development Coach has been such an amazing and inspirational tutor. I have thoroughly loved learning from them; but also, feeling empowered to continue after I had the wobble about leaving it all in mid-2024.
I will take on your guidance and advice on believing in myself more. I just need to really express how much I am grateful and thankful to them for making me feel I can achieve.
