The Adult Social Care Workforce Data Set (ASC-WDS) is a free online data collection service that covers the adult social care workforce in England.
Join the 20,000 care providers already using the free ASC-WDS service.
The service helps care providers run their business and manage their staff training needs. It can also provide access to funding for staff training.
The data collected is vital to the Government, the Department of Health and Social Care, local authorities and the Care Quality Commission as it allows them to plan, fund and monitor the sector.
