MiCare is an innovative project which Sutton Coldfield based organisation Age Concern Birmingham has been leading for the past 2 years. The project is funded by the Erasmus+ programme of the European Union. The aim of the MiCare project has been to develop a Training Package for people from migrant communities who wish to work as caregivers for older people and other people with care needs. The comprehensive training package will include courses in Caregiving, Language and Skills Enhancement.
We are now reaching the finalisation of the training package which will be available online, through a comprehensive platform, containing both exercises for self-learning and additional exercises and case studies that can be implemented with the help of trainers.
In order to develop an online-platform and mobile application that satisfies the needs of end-users, the MiCare project is conducting a user requirements analysis to help understand the requirements of the end-users for all the different functionalities of the platform.
The analysis is conducted through questionnaires and interviews. If you would like to help in the evaluation of the MiCare platform, please email pete.millington@ageconcernbirmingham.org.uk
After the completion of the training package in December 2021, a Train the Trainers event will take place in order to present the training package and provide basic training and guidelines to trainers.
