For the last 12 months at SVT we have seen a surge of international students wanting to start the training within Health & Social care. The main reason for this is the massive need in the UK for recruitment in the care sector and as a result the UK Government have relaxed the entrance rules for this sector to the international community. If you have the correct qualifications and a place to work on arrival you can apply for a working visa using the correct application channels.
As a trusted training provider we offer some keys points to assist you.
- You must have working care experience
- You must have a UK OFQUAL regulated qualification
- You will must have a work placement before you travel to the UK
If you have the above you can apply through the correct channels to gain a UK working Visa. Below are some links to help you.
