What is the Diploma in Aged Care Level 5 at Caregiver Academia Butwal?

The Diploma in Aged Care Level 5 is a 900-hour internationally accredited aged care training programme delivered in Butwal, Nepal, designed to prepare career-ready caregivers for the global demand in elder care across Canada, the UK, Australia, Europe, and New Zealand.

Key Takeaways

  • 900 hours of structured theory, lab practical, and 200+ hours of supervised aged-care field placement — all in Butwal, no travel required.
  • Four internationally recognised certifications on completion: ISO 9001:2015, CTEVT Nepal, CPD UK, and SDC Canada.
  • Direct career pipeline to aged care roles overseas — with 2026 fee set at NPR 180,000 and installment plans available.

As the population of elderly adults grows worldwide, aged care has become one of the most urgent and well-paid healthcare labour markets. Nepali caregivers are in strong demand because of their compassion, cultural adaptability, and work ethic. Our Diploma in Aged Care Level 5 is engineered around that opportunity: a complete diploma-level aged care training in Butwal that mirrors the standards expected by employers in Canada, the UK, Australia, and Europe.

This programme is ideal for +2 graduates, nursing school candidates considering an alternative pathway, existing healthcare support staff looking to specialise in elder care, and anyone planning an overseas caregiving career. Every module is mapped against CPD UK and SDC Canada frameworks, so what you learn in our Butwal classrooms directly translates to what aged care homes abroad actually need.

What makes our Butwal delivery special is the combination: local access without compromising on international standards. You study at our purpose-built simulation lab in Kalikanagar, complete 200+ placement hours at partner care homes and hospitals, and finish with a stack of credentials that open doors globally. And if your family situation changes mid-course, you can transfer seamlessly to our Kathmandu head office and continue the same diploma without losing credit hours.
