The Social Care Institute for Excellence (SCIE) is a leading values-driven improvement agency. In recent years we have evolved from a largely government- funded body to a fast-moving, high-profile and more commercial organisation and thought leader. We are independent and people-focused, operating at policy and practice levels with a huge database of 'what works' good practice, eLearning tools and resources.

Working beyond and across social care and health and children's and adults sectors, we contribute to the development and implementation of better care, support and safeguarding at national and local level. We support commissioners and providers in developing and embedding practices which are innovative, have impact, and enable effective scrutiny and accountability. We offer a wide range of tailored and flexible improvement support, working collaboratively with associates and partner organisations. SCIE's future success depends on our ability to continue developing our range of large and small commercial projects covering consultancy, training, evaluation and research to complement our government funded commissions.
