CHCDIS007 Facilitate the empowerment of people with disability​​

Disability Awareness

There have been a number changes in the disability sector, two being the Disability Inclusion Act and the introduction of the National Disability Insurance Scheme. With the introduction of these changes, a major focus has been placed on empowering people with disabilities, assisting them to live their own lives and to make or be involved in making decisions which directly impacts the quality of their life.

The Disability Awareness training will give people the skills and knowledge required to effectively interact with and facilitate the empowerment of people with a disability.

Learners enrolled in the course are required to complete an online training module through the Learning Management System prior to attending a one day workshop.
