ASCOT Training Courses
The Adult Social Care Outcomes Toolkit (ASCOT) is a set of instruments designed to measure an individual's social care related quality of life (SCRQoL). ASCOT is used in the UK to measure SCRQoL and carer SCRQoL in the Adult Social Care Survey and the Survey of Adult Carers in England respectively. Over the last few years it has increasingly attracted attention internationally; for example, Australian government is currently piloting it as a Care Quality Indicator.
The ASCOT team are holding two training courses for those interested in the toolkit. The ‘Introduction to ASCOT’ course will be held at the London School of Economics and Political Science on 19th April 2016. It is designed for people who wish to learn more about ASCOT and it covers topics such as measuring outcomes using ASCOT, different versions of the toolkit, and how it could be used in research and practice.
The ‘Using the Mixed Methods of Care Home Version of ASCOT (CH3)’ course is for the individuals who wish to measure SCRQoL using ASCOT in residential care settings. This course will take place at PSSRU, University of Kent, Canterbury on 9-10th May 2016.
For more information about the training courses and to book a place, please visit the ASCOT website: http://www.pssru.ac.uk/ascot/training-and-events.php
We would be grateful if you could forward this email to anyone who you think might be interested in these training courses.
With best wishes
