About Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC)

Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC) oversees social work, social care, and the early childhood workforce in Scotland. Because of their work, Scotland's citizens can rely on a dependable, competent, and self-assured workforce to provide them with social services, social care, or early childhood services. By registering social workers, social care providers, and early childhood educators, establishing standards for their behavior, training and education, as well as assisting with their professional development, the SSSC safeguards the general public. People look into and act when they don't uphold the norms of behavior and practice. 90 hours of Post Registration Training& Learning per year are required of social workers.
