COURSE DESCRIPTION

RGIT Australia’s Certificate III in Individual Support (Aged Care Training) qualification reflects the role of workers in the community and/or residential setting who follow an individualised plan to provide person-centred support to people who may require support due to ageing, disability or some other reason.

Workers have a range of factual, technical and procedural knowledge, as well as some theoretical knowledge of the concepts and practices required to provide person-centred support.

Students will possess a sound base in theoretical individual support industry skills and knowledge combined with 120 hours in a regulated Aged care industry that they would like to develop to enhance their educational and employment opportunities. Graduates at this level will have specialised knowledge and skills for skilled/paraprofessional work and/or further learning.
