Australia’s Leading Graduate Program for Social Model Skills Development

We know a career in disability can be challenging and we support you to unravel the complexity of the unexpected and to see everybody you support as an individual with great potential.

We’ve created a learning road map which supports on the job, formal and technical learning – all self-paced and flexible to optimise your strengths and passions.

We will support you with:

  • an enriching learning environment.
  • two hours a week of structured interdisciplinary team collaboration where you can draw on expertise and learn from the whole team.
  • guidance, modelling, mentoring, and career coaching – curated to meet your individual needs.
  • technology and tools to help you to plan, understand and improve your impact.
  • access to an industry-specific digital platform where you can find evidence based research to improve your client’s outcomes.
  • professional practices to support you to become a commercial practitioner supporting people to be in charge of their life.
  • an administrative team that takes away the stress of scheduling and booking appointments and local administration support so you can focus on what’s important.
