A Brief Description
CHCSS00124 – Disability Work – Behaviour Support provides a set of skills for work supporting people with disability who require positive behaviour support.
This skill set is for individuals who hold a qualification at Certificate III level or higher in Community Services, Health or a related field who wish to develop skills in supporting people with disability requiring positive behaviour support.
Skill Set Overview
Horizon2 is a specialist training provider with a training team of experienced community service professionals. Through this team of industry professionals you have the opportunity to achieve a nationally recognised Skill Set — CHCSS00124 – Disability Work – Behaviour Support. Successful candidates will need to complete 3 units of competency.
Units
CHCCCS005 – Conduct individual assessments
CHCCCS044 – Follow established person-centred behaviour supports
CHCDIS016 – Develop and promote positive person-centred behaviour supports
You will be asked to complete 3 subjects via online learning. You may also apply for Recognition of Prior Learning if you believe you already have the knowledge and skills relevant to a particular unit or units. An RPL application must be submitted at the time of enrolment and the onus is on the student to provide sufficient, current, valid and authentic evidence against each of the units. Where there are gaps in your evidence, a professional conversation with your assessor may provide additional evidence. Your assessor may also ask you to provide further evidence to substantiate your claim of competency in a particular unit/s.
Where gaps in evidence remain – that is that you cannot be considered competent on the evidence provided, gap training will be made available to you. For gap training, you will be provided with workbooks and given assessments to complete. It is possible that gap training might include practical assessments.
This is a self-paced program so the time to complete depends on the rate of submission. It is anticipated the process will take up to 6 months and is mostly dependent on you completing the assessment so that your assessor can review it. We will move at your pace and support you to set achievable goals.
This skill set is for individuals who hold a qualification at Certificate III level or higher in Community Services, Health or a related field.
This qualification does not involve a mandatory Vocational Placement. However, the units in this qualification may require additional work-based assessments. We strongly endorse and encourage you to take on volunteer work while studying. This allows you to gain practical industry and workplace experience where you will be taught how to apply the lessons you learned during your training.
We understand that times can be tough, so we offer payment plans that can be negotiated with you via Pay Advantage or you can use HUMM EZIPAY. Applicants of a Pay Advantage payment plan will only receive certification when program payment is made in full.
You can talk to a member of the enrolments team about your particular circumstances at any time. Just call 1300 889 564 or send us an enquiry. We are here to help and can devise an alternative payment plan for you, if required. We will not ask you to pay any more than $1500 in advance of any service provided.
