The Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training on Learning Disability and Autism is named after Oliver McGowan, whose death shone a light on the need for health and social care staff to have better training. The Health and Care Act 2022 introduced a statutory requirement that regulated service providers must ensure their staff receive learning disability and autism training appropriate to their role.     

The Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training is the standardised training that was developed for this purpose and is the government's preferred and recommended training for health and social care staff. 

Oliver’s Training is delivered in 2 Tiers. Staff need to complete either Tier 1 or Tier 2. 

Both Tiers consist of 2 parts.

The first part of both Tier 1 and Tier 2 is the e-learning. Everyone will need to complete the e-learning regardless of where they work and the Tier of training they require. The second part of the training is either a live 1 hour online interactive session for those needing Tier 1, or, or, a 1-day face to face training for people who require Tier 2. 

Tier 1 of The Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training on Learning Disability and Autism is for people who require general awareness of the support autistic people or people with a learning disability may need.

Tier 2 of The Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training on Learning Disability and Autism is for people who may need to provide care and support for autistic people or people with a learning disability. 

Both Tier 1 and Tier 2 training sessions are delivered by Trio’s: Facilitator and Autistic Expert with lived experience and Learning Disability Expert with lived experience.
