CSWA Newsletter – September 2024

As a Training Council, CSWA continues to build the workforce capacity of our sectors and our work has a strategic focus, however we love hearing about and sharing stories of individual and local success and examples of programs that have a positive human connection.

Whilst at a forum recently, I made an accidental connection and heard about one such program Youngster.co.  For anyone who has seen the programs ‘Old People’s Home for 4 Year Olds’ and ‘Old People’s Home for Teenagers’, it is hard to not be moved by the impact of the programs on both participants.

CSWA Newsletter – August 2024

The invitation to participate as a panelist at the Regional and Remote Communities workshop at HumanAbility’s National Forum in Canberra provided the opportunity to highlight the unique challenges faced by our regional and remote communities but also the innovative approaches utilised to overcome these. An example of a challenge highlighted was the scenario whereby many communities do not have an accredited Early Learning Service which a student requires access to in order to complete the assessment requirements of the qualification. Unfortunately these scenarios are often not recognised when decisions made around training development and delivery so the opportunity to raise awareness is important.
