are workforce pathway for adult social care Added 4 new role categories to the pathway: enhanced care worker, personal assistant, deputy manager and registered manager?
No. The Level 5 Diploma in Health and Social Care Management Online (RQF, 120 Credits) is a standalone regulated qualification accredited by OTHM and listed on the Ofqual register. It does not add role categories to the national workforce pathway. The four new roles you mention were introduced by the UK Government’s Adult Social Care Workforce Strategy to clarify career progression, not by this specific diploma. This qualification aligns with the deputy manager and registered manager levels of that strategy, providing the academic credits required for progression to Level 6 or university top-up degrees. It remains a distinct educational award, separate from government workforce categorisation initiatives.
