Borderless & QCS Sponsorship Series
Everything care providers need to get sponsorship right in 2026.
Join Borderless and QCS for a free, practical webinar series built specifically for the realities of sponsorship in care.
This expert-led series is designed to help care providers understand sponsorship, stay compliant with the Home Office, and use overseas recruitment safely and sustainably.
Upcoming sessions
Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS) - the perfect application
A Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS, the digital record you assign to a worker before they apply for their visa) is where most sponsorship problems begin.
This session covers your obligations as a sponsor, what a complete and correct application looks like, and the details that most often trigger a rejection: a salary that doesn't match, the wrong SOC code, a start date that slips.
We'll walk through the assignment process step by step, the duties that come with every CoS you issue, and the checks that catch a problem before it reaches the Home Office.
How technology and AI can Support your Home Office compliance
Most sponsorship admin still runs on spreadsheets, shared folders, and someone's memory. It works until a document is missed or a check goes stale, and then it's a compliance problem.
This session shows how the right platform changes that. We'll be straight about where AI genuinely helps, and where a human still needs to make the call.
Ongoing Home Office compliance: your obligations and record keeping duties
A sponsor licence is not a one-off approval. It comes with duties that run for as long as you employ a sponsored worker: holding the right documentation, keeping your policies and procedures current, and reporting changes within set deadlines. Miss one and you risk a category-A breach (the most serious kind, the type that can cost you your licence).
In this session we'll map out the documentation you're expected to keep on file, the policies the Home Office wants to see in place, and the reporting duties that apply whenever a worker's role, salary, or circumstances change.
Preparing for your Home Office and CQC audit
An audit rarely arrives with much notice, and for a care provider it can come from two directions at once: the Home Office checking your sponsorship records, and CQC assessing the quality of care.
This longer, collaborative session at 11AM on 27 August,walks through what to expect from each, where providers most often come unstuck, and how to prepare so an audit is a formality rather than a fire drill. The session closes with a live Q&A, so you can put your own sponsorship or compliance questions directly to an adviser.
