This course targets new entrants to the AOD sector as well as other professionals and workers who do not have family violence as a core function of their role, and others interested in increasing their understanding of factors and reporting mechanisms related to family violence risk.
Assessments are conducted using a variety of methods to ensure that sufficient evidence is collected to demonstrate the required skills and knowledge. Assessments frequently require observation of therapeutic skills demonstrated via role-play/simulation and will include question banks to verify essential knowledge.
