Benefits and Work

DISABILITY BENEFIT TRAINING FOR CLAIMANTS, CARERS AND PROFESSIONALS.

Our online modules teach you to master the Personal Independence Payment (PIP) application process and challenge bad decisions.

WHAT IS PIP?

Personal Independence Payment (PIP) is a benefit for people with a long term health condition or disability who have daily living or mobility needs.

Whether you are a claimant or a welfare rights professional, PIP claims, assessments, and appeals often feel confusing, stressful and unfair.

Our modules guide you through this maze, using up-to-date law and guidance to help you get the right PIP award for yourself or the people you work with.

This helped me to gain insight into what I already know and I think it may also make it easier to remember what I didn't. Thank you

I really enjoyed this course and found it really helpful… There is a lot of information put in an easy to read and understand way. I enjoy doing the quizzes, they really test your knowledge and comprehension of the text and points… I would feel confident in filling in my own form… I am hoping to do voluntary work with people with mental health disabilities so I would hope to use what I have learnt if it be needed… I give it 5 stars.
