Certificate iii in individual support-CHC33015

As the human population grows in size and life expectancy increases, we have to adapt our health practices to cater for the aged and people with disabilities.

The Certificate III in Individual Support (Ageing, Disability) is a professional accreditation that focuses on the factual, technical, and procedural knowledge required to provide care for people in a community or residential setting.

Because this work requires discretion and judgement, our approach to teaching will prepare you to confidently take responsibility in sensitive situations. Your learning will blend theoretical with practical knowledge so that you’re ready to support individuals who are aged or with disabilities.

You can take this course as an entry pathway into the aged care or disability care industry.

This course supersedes: CHC30212 Certificate III in Aged Care.

 This course is self paced and students have up to 12 months to complete their studies (additional 6 month extension available, conditions apply)
