Today, we are celebrating the remarkable achievement of Emily Fry as she successfully completes her Aged Care Traineeship with Hessel GTO and her host employer, Uniting Communities.
During her traineeship, Emily had the incredible opportunity to pursue her studies in Certificate III Individual Support (Ageing) CHC33015 at Enhance Training RTO 40387, all while gaining invaluable on-the-job training at Uniting Communities. This dynamic combination allowed her to seamlessly apply her newfound knowledge and skills in a practical setting, fostering continuous growth in her confidence and expertise.

Below is a questionnaire Emily has completed, reflecting on her training and study journey:
How did you find the traineeship experience overall?
It was really good. The providers I had were really helpful and were there whenever I needed and regularly checked in on me.
I would have to say my growth and willing and wantingness to actually complete the work I had some stages in my traineeship where I wasn’t sure if I was going to be able to complete and had some personal issues but over came them and was able to finish.
What did you find most challenging in your traineeship?
Again it would have to be the reason that was my most memorable it was also my most challenging too
Had the training, mentoring and support provided been sufficient?
I think it has been really good they are always there when I need help and check in from time to time to make sure I’m on track.
