Toolkit - Using the European Social Fund Plus (ESF+) for Staff Training in Independent Living Support

This toolkit offers guidance on using the European Social Fund Plus (ESF+) to train care workers supporting independent living for persons with disabilities and those with long-term care needs. Developed by the European Commission, it includes practical recommendations, good practice examples, and a checklist for effective programme design.

Aimed at Managing Authorities and care organisations, the toolkit highlights person-centred, rights-based approaches to workforce development, helping address skills gaps and enhance care quality across the EU.
