Care-worker training for the Japanese and British markets, with the credential recognised on return

Sri Lankans abroad have parents at home whom they cannot look after from Melbourne. They will pay, and the money stays.

Visit two recruitment agencies that already place care workers abroad and ask what their candidates fail on: the language, the practical test or the paperwork. Then ask one nursing home at home whether they would hire a returnee with that credential and pay more for it. The agency's list of gaps is your course; the employer's yes is your promise to students.

Who pays first

A school leaver's family who would pay course fees for a credential that leads to a care job in Japan or Britain and still counts at home afterwards.

What leaves today

Care workers leave with skills nobody at home recognises on their return; a recognised credential brings that experience back as a qualified workforce.

Which tests Japan and Britain require for care workers, whether your course may prepare people for them, and how recognition on return will actually be given.

Japan. Chapter Sixteen

"Host the tests and the Japanese-standard training in Sri Lanka"

Training to Japan's standard at home sends workers out qualified and brings them back with a credential.

Does it keep value that now leaves the island, or build the proof that lets somebody else do so?
