Our population is growing fast and many of our Victorian residents are getting older. Which means, a number of our elderly citizens will need to go into Residential Aged Care in the future. As the population ages, the need for specialist carers is in high demand.
We are passionate about raising the standards in Residential Aged Care. As such we want to give employers the best possible workforce. Staff who are knowledgeable, professional and caring.
We look for students who have a positive caring attitude towards the elderly. After all, the industry is about looking after those who are unable to look after themselves.
Industry Consultation
Our curriculum is designed in consultation with the industry and our qualifications are nationally recognised.
Whether you are a job seeker, need to up-skill or looking for a new career, ITHEA offers prospective students courses in ageing support.
Both courses are delivered in a classroom setting or via a blended approach. The blended approach is designed for those who are currently working in the industry and are looking to upskill into a Certificate IV in Ageing Support.
Placement in Real Aged Care Facilities
As part of our curriculum, all students must undertake a minimum of 120 hours of practical placement, for both the Certificate III and IV, at an affiliated aged care facility. All students are assessed under supervision.
This is critical to ensuring our students build their employability skills. Students gain valuable knowledge and skills to work in the industry. As students undertake placement in real residential aged care facilities, many are offered employment once they complete their studies.
Note: It important students have a valid National Police Check before they begin placement.
