Working towards a recognised adult care qualification doesn’t have to mean rearranging your shifts around a classroom. The NCFE CACHE Level 3 Diploma in Adult Care (RQF) can be studied fully online, and at Easy Training 123, that’s how most learners complete it — at their own pace, with tutor support throughout, priced at £950.
What This Qualification Actually Is
This diploma is a nationally recognised, Ofqual-regulated qualification built around real workplace competence, not classroom theory. To achieve it, learners need to complete 39 credits from mandatory units and at least 19 credits from optional units, with a minimum of 35 credits achieved at Level 3 or above. It’s internally assessed and externally quality assured, so while your tutor guides and marks your work, an outside check confirms the standard is being met consistently.
Because it’s assessed through a portfolio of evidence, you’ll need to be working, volunteering, or on placement in a care setting while you study, so what you submit reflects genuine, demonstrated practice.
How the Online Study Actually Works
You’ll access your course materials and submit assignments through an online learning platform, at times that fit your schedule rather than a fixed timetable. There are no exams — your understanding is assessed through written assignments, workplace evidence, and reflective accounts, built up gradually over the course rather than tested all at once. Your tutor, Janice Oliver, our top certified NCFE accredited instructor, marks your work and guides you through each stage, so studying online doesn’t mean studying without support.
Who This Course Is For
This qualification suits:
- Anyone already working or volunteering in adult care who wants a recognised qualification to match their experience
- People starting their first care role who need a nationally recognised qualification to build a genuine career
- Care workers aiming for a senior or lead role, for whom Level 3 is the required stepping stone
Entry is at the discretion of the centre, in line with the Equality Act 2010, and learners are generally expected to be at least 16, though most will already be 18 or older and working in a relevant setting.

Why Study Online
Studying online makes sense for a qualification like this, since most learners are already juggling a job and other commitments. It means:
- No fixed classroom hours to work your shifts around
- Full access to your course materials whenever suits you
- Support from your tutor without needing to travel anywhere for it
- The ability to build your portfolio around the job you’re already doing, rather than pausing it to retrain
