It introduces you to the fundamental aspects of aged care, including the principles of person-centred care and communication techniques essential for building relationships with clients. The course focuses on practical skills and includes a work placement, ensuring you feel confident and prepared to enter a care role. If you continue to the full Cert III qualification, course units in this course will be credited to the full qualification. 

 

Certificate III in Individual Support (Ageing) (CHC33021): This aged care course delves deeper into the sector, offering comprehensive training on various topics, such as supporting individuals with daily living activities and promoting their independence. The curriculum includes vital training on understanding and respecting the unique needs of older individuals, as well as working collaboratively within a multidisciplinary team. This certificate opens various employment opportunities, empowering you to take on more responsible roles within the aged care sector.
