Community Services

Community Services, taught against the national register.

Community services, early childhood, aged care, disability and youth work qualifications, the largest single package on the register. Everything listed here is drawn from the national register, so this page cannot drift from what is actually current.

A qualification is a promise that someone can do the work.

Which means the assessment has to be real, the trainers have to be current, and the evidence has to survive somebody checking it later.

IIHow we teach

Assessment first, content second.

i

Built from the evidence

We start from what the unit requires you to demonstrate, then design the teaching that gets you there. The reverse order produces courses that are interesting and unassessable.

ii

Current practitioners

Trainers who still work in the field. Vocational currency is a requirement, and it is also the difference between a class that is true and one that was true.

iii

Honest about the gap

Where a qualification prepares you for a role but does not licence you for it, we say so before you enrol rather than after.

IIIPathways

One qualification is rarely the destination.

The levels above stack. A Certificate III that leads nowhere is a worse outcome than a Certificate II that leads somewhere, and the register is arranged so you can see the next step before you commit to this one.

Credit transfer

Units completed in one qualification carry into any other qualification that contains them. That is a right, not a concession, and it is worth checking before you re enrol in something you have already done.

Start a conversation.

Tell us where you are now and what you are trying to reach. The right qualification usually follows from that.
