About the course

Our Enhance Training Certificate IV in Disability CHC43121 Course is here to help you further your career in the disability support sector.

By studying with us you’ll be able to advance from your previous Certificate III in Individual Support (Disability) CHC33021, or Certificate III in Individual Support (Disability) CHC33015 to work with clients with or without direct supervision or even coordinate your own small team of support workers as a team leader or manager.

You will learn how to assist people living with disability to achieve greater levels of independence, self-reliance, community participation and wellbeing.

Once you have successfully completed this course you could choose to seek employment as a Care Worker, Disability Support Coordinator, Employment Coordinator (Disability) or a position of similar level in the field of disability services. Alternatively, you could use this qualification to pursue university studies.

Who is the course for?

This course is for anyone who loves their work in disability care and is looking for the next step. The disability care sector needs passionate, driven people to fill a variety of essential roles at all levels. This course is for caring individuals who like to support others, who currently have a Certificate III in Individual Support (Disability) CHC33021, or Certificate III in Individual Support (Disability) CHC33015, or relevant equivalent industry experience and who want to progress to a more senior role in the industry.

In-house student support

You will receive great student support throughout your studies with Enhance Training where you will have your own trainer providing support, or for more individualised strategies, a learner support service (LSS) case manager will be assigned to you. LSS is an initiative of SkillsSA and the Government of South Australia and supports you with study plans, flexible study delivery, after-hours support and guidance which also extends after your training is complete.

We are the industry

Enhance Training is for those who want the best education for themselves and the best results for the people they get to work with. We don’t just understand the care industry, we are the industry. Enhance Training is part of Hessel Group, which both employs people and assists those who are seeking disability support, aged care, childcare services and allied health services.

Unlike many training providers, we are an end-to-end service. This means that through Enhance Training and the wider Hessel Group, you learn, complete placement, become qualified, complete training and even progress to positions within our wide network of Hessel Group care services and clients.

Direct from the experts

Our teachers and trainers are in the industry too. They have direct, recent, first-hand experience in the industry so can relate to your questions and queries about the topic and demonstrate how these scenarios may play out on the job.

Real life practice, without the pressure

We have a dedicated Skills Lab which is set up with real equipment to mimic environments you may come across on the job. This means you can practice the skills you’ve gained, in full, minimising the stress of being faced with scenarios for the first time out in the real world. We find this helps our students to gain a positive understanding of their skills, without pressure.
