Learner induction session
This is a one-hour session which will cover everything you need to know to get started within your course; from teaching methods and support provided, to requirements for assessments and practical placement hours. It’s also an opportunity for you to ask anything that you’re unsure about.
At this session we will familiarise you with the following.
- Our learning methods
- What is expected for assessments and completion of units
- The types of support available to you
- The requirements for practical placement hours
Dedicated trainer support from start to finish
Our experienced training team work in partnership with learners to deliver human-centred education.
All of our trainers have real-life experience in the sector and relevant aged care workplaces, so they can provide relevant and up-to-date support and assistance.
Our human-centred approach means our trainers understand work-life-study challenges, so they aim to develop a productive collaboration with learners aligned to specific needs and learning styles.
Each trainer will work with you closely throughout your learning experience with us, ensuring you you feel supported every step of the way.
Learner success team
Our learner success team’s role is to help you navigate any obstacles you may encounter in your learning journey.
They check in with you weekly or fortnightly to provide the opportunity to discuss your needs and challenges as they arise and troubleshoot them before they could become a problem.
Types of support you might consider as a learner are:
- Language support if English is your second language
- Literacy and numeracy support
- Study tips and tricks
- Assistance with your resume and cover letter
Practical placement help
Our practical placements are organised in blocks throughout our aged care courses, so you can apply the theoretical knowledge in a workplace environment as you’re learning it.
All of your regular supports are available through this important learning stage, and you’ll continue to connect with your trainer regularly.
For those looking to study the Certificate III in Individual Support (Ageing) and not currently employed in the sector, our Placement Coordinator can provide assistance in organising practical placement within a community care facility, so you can gain the crucial workplace experience needed to meet the requirements of your course.
