The platform
Everything care teams need to manage training properly
01
Assign training clearly
Use Learning Paths and one-off assignments so managers know exactly who has been given what. Suggestions help managers decide, but assignments are always confirmed.
02
Track gaps across every Home
The Training Matrix separates who needs training, who needs assignment, who is overdue, and who needs a face-to-face booking.
03
Online provided, face-to-face tracked
Nest Learn's built-in online courses are ready to assign. You deliver your own in-person training; Nest Learn tracks the sessions, bookings, attendance and outcomes.
04
Give staff a simple next action
Staff see what to start, continue, renew, or attend next without needing to understand the manager workflow behind it.
05
Keep evidence ready for inspection
Completion history, certificates, evidence revisions, corrections, and audit logs stay attached to the record.
06
Stay on top with notifications
Staff training emails, session reminders, welcome emails, and weekly manager digests keep the right people informed.
Two views, one system
Built for managers and staff
Managers get the operational picture. Staff get a clear next step. Both work from the same training records, so nothing falls between the two.

Training Matrix
Know exactly where training stands
The Matrix gives managers a clear reporting view across staff, Homes, and courses. It shows Training Status separately from face-to-face Booking State, so teams can tell the difference between overdue training, missing assignments, and sessions that need booking.
- Staff rows, course columns, status at a glance
- Complete, Overdue, Expired, Needs booking, Not assigned
- Filter by Home, course category, and status

Optional add-on
Bespoke induction packages
Beyond the shared catalogue, we build custom induction courses for individual providers. Your induction material becomes an interactive course only your provider can see, so new starters complete induction inside Nest Learn and you can prove it was done. Available at a small additional cost.
01
Built from your material
Your handbook, policies and running order, turned into modules with knowledge checks rather than a folder handed over on day one.
02
Run and tracked in Nest Learn
Assigned through Learning Paths on a start date, with live progress per new starter, module by module.
03
Evidence induction happened
Completion records per module and per person, with the audit trail, sitting in the Training Matrix alongside everything else.
Evidence & reporting
Evidence that stays with the record
Completions, certificates, evidence revisions and corrections are preserved with an audit trail. Managers can see who changed what, when and why. Certificates for CareCPD-accredited courses can be verified directly with CareCPD.

Built for every Home you run
One view across all your Homes

Each manager sees only the Homes they look after.
Staff self-service permissions
