Care agencies, public/policy services, universities, and other institutions may provide basic training for untrained care workers. However, we do not know whether that includes dementia and to what extent such courses are of good quality. Families may require informal care workers to be trained, but there is not a national/local regulation about this. The Ministry of Education ensures the quality (content, length, delivery mode) of such courses, which can be delivered online, including by the Ministry of Education itself through the Federal Institutes of Research.
