We also want to make sure that everyone who needs to register with us, is registered on time. Changes to the Register on 3 June means that new workers must now apply to register within three months of starting their role, so they are registered with the required six months.
It's easy to get started. Create your MySSSC account here. Your employer will help you to complete your application.
In the video below, SSSC Chief Executive Maree Allison talks about the three months deadline for new workers to apply for registration.
If you require text transcripts of any of our videos, please contact us to discuss your requirements.
The #SSSCregistered campaign is your chance to shine a light on the important work you do every day, either in social work, social care or children and young people services and that you are part of a registered and regulated professional workforce.
Talking about your registration will help more people to understand what it means and reassure them you have necessary values, knowledge and skills to care for their loved ones.
We want everyone across Scotland to understand how important it is to be SSSC registered and would like your support to help us raise awareness.

We’ve created lots of products and content for you to use on your own social channels, website and email signatures as well as key messages to help you tell people what being registered with the SSSC means for you, your service and most importantly, the people you care for.
Use or adapt these key messages to tell your colleagues, friends and followers about the important work you do.
