Adult disability payment (Scotland), 9 – 10 February 2023 ONLINE
Adult disability payment (ADP) is a new Scottish benefit aimed at supporting working-age adults who have extra care needs or mobility difficulties because of a disability. It is replacing personal independence payment in Scotland, starting from 2022. Getting an award of ADP can significantly increase income and so it is a crucial benefit for advisers and others to know about. This course will give you an understanding of the main rules and help you to identify people who may be entitled. The course will also look at how the roll-out of ADP in Scotland will impact on people who already get personal independence payment.
The course covers:
- Who is entitled to ADP
- How to claim
- How the ADP assessment works
- How personal independence payment claimants will be transferred to ADP
The course will be delivered online via Zoom from 10am to 1pm each day with a half hour break from 11.15 – 11.45.
It is a practical course, delivered using a combination of trainer presentation, exercises and group discussion. Participants will need a Wi-Fi connection and a suitable device to access the internet. It is not recommended to join via a mobile phone. Participants will receive an email a few days before the start of the course, with a link to the event hosted on our AskCPAG elearning platform.
