More Course Details

How will Whole Person Learning help me?

Our Whole Person Learning Model understands that you are unique and human and not a 'widget' in some training, factory-like, production line.

Few of us learn everything when it's delivered on a monotonous, boring, lecture-like standard way.

We understand that learning is more effective, interesting and fun if it draws on a variety of different modes; Visual, Auditory, Reading/Writing, and Kinesthetic.

This is why in every session, you'll get to talk, listen, role-play, watch, ask questions, solve and read. This means that you'll learn in ways that best suit you because the material is engaging and accessible.

Will you organise my practical work placement for me?

Yes, we will!

To achieve this qualification, you must have completed at least 120 hours of work as detailed in the Assessment Requirements of the units of competency.

If you are already working in an ageing or disability support role, we’ll help you to understand how many hours can be undertaken in your normal role, and how many will need to be done on placement.

This will vary depending on the types of work you are able to be exposed to in your normal workplace.

If you are not already working, you must have completed 60 hours of work in a disability workplace and 60 hours in an Aged Care workplace.

We’ll organise your supervised work placement if you need it.
Your Host Placement Providers will nominate the dates and times of your placement shifts.

Note that if you do not accept the host placement provider(s) as organised by Warner Institute then you will be required to seek your own alternative Warner Institute approved provider and this may delay your successful completion of the course.

What career pathways does this course open up for me?

Successfully completing this nationally accredited course provides you with the qualification to work in a range of roles within the ageing support and/or disability sector.

You'll be making a real difference to peoples lives through supporting those living with disability or with complex needs to achieve their goals, develop their capabilities and build independence, and fully participate in the community.

Working in the care and support sector can provide flexibility, with the opportunity to work part-time, full-time or casual shifts scheduled around your other commitments.

These roles include but not limited to working as a: Disability Support Worker, Personal Care Worker, Community Support Worker, Residential Care Worker, Accommodation Support Worker, Day Activity Worker.
