Abstract | Against a background of concern about staff recruitment and retention in social services in the UK, the authors examine one model of employer support for staff undergoing professional training alongside their employment. It is argued that support for these mature students needs to be broader than that normally offered within educational institutions, and this model of bespoke consultancy worked well for one student, who made the transition from academic underachievement to professional qualification with a distinction in her final course. It is suggested that support offered within an employment context can be motivating and more readily accessible to these students, whose locus remains in the workplace while they study.
