Why study Cert IV in Ageing Support?

This qualification describes the job of support staff who carry out specialised duties in aged services, whether they do so in a residential setting, a client’s home, or a community setting. Through the creation, facilitation, and evaluation of individualised service planning and delivery, employees will assume responsibility for their own outputs within clearly defined organisational norms and maintain the quality of service delivery.

Workers could be expected to exercise leadership and bear some responsibility for the organisation, as well as for the quantity and calibre of other people’s outputs, within certain bounds.

The candidate must have finished at least 120 hours of work, as specified in the assessment requirements for the units of competency, to acquire this qualification.

This qualification does not currently have any licencing, legal, regulatory, or certification requirements.
