This was a supporting detail page of the main policy document.
The assessed and supported year in employment (ASYE) is designed to help newly qualified social workers develop their skills, knowledge and professional confidence. It provides them with access to regular support during their first year of employment. The ASYE is open to all newly qualified social workers in councils and in the private and voluntary sectors. It is based on the Professional Capabilities Framework (PCF) for social work and includes the possibility of certification by the College of Social Work. The ASYE was recommended by the Social Work Task Force. It was introduced in September 2012 and replaces all former arrangements for newly qualified social workers. You can find more information about the ASYE from the Skills for Care website. Organisations providing the ASYE
Organisations who have registered to provide the ASYE programme can claim £2,000 for each participant. Voluntary and private sector organisations can register to provide the ASYE. Registered organisations who are looking for advice or who wish to claim their funding should use the social work portal. Contact us if you have any questions about the ASYE.
