Who is this course for?

​We’ve designed this course for teachers, visiting teachers and allied health officers who are responsible for assessing and supporting students with disabilities and learning difficulties. As components of the course focus on student assessment, goal setting and program planning, interested Education Support staff (aides) should discuss this with a teacher from their school as it is best practice for teachers and ES to collaborate on these parts of the course.

How is this course delivered?

​The course is delivered online. Participants are also required to attend three 75-90 minute 'face-to-face sessions' (via the WebEx platform). The sessions are usually conducted after school.

How long does it take to complete the course?

​It typically takes about 20 hours to complete the online component of this course. Participants are expected to complete the course in their own time over 10 weeks.

How much does it cost?

​This course has been heavily subsidised as part of our ongoing commitment to building capability in schools. There is a $33 (incl. GST) course registration fee for all participants. Whole schools registering to do the course will be charged a one-day CRT rate.
