This workshop is for frontline workers to learn how to recognise the signs of family violence, respond appropriately, and refer to support services relevant to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. It covers the nature and scope, patterns and impacts of family violence, what to consider for diverse groups, communication skills, safety planning, referral pathways and more.
The 2-Day First Nations Workshop (delivered in RA1-2) is the first step in our Assessment Pathway, designed for frontline workers who want to deepen their knowledge and skills in responding to domestic and family violence.
Once you complete the 2-Day First Nations Workshop, you can continue your learning journey through our 1-day focused workshops, which offer in-depth training on specific topics such as:
Gendered Violence in Diverse Communities
Men who use Violence
Multicultural
Women with Disability
Upon completing the eLearning Foundations, 2-Day First Nations Workshop and one of the focused workshops, you are eligible to enrol in the Assessments. After successfully completing each component of the Assessment Pathway, you’ll receive a nationally recognised Statement of Attainment for the unit of competency CHCDFV001: Recognise and respond appropriately to domestic and family violence.

Be a front line worker.
Be aged 18+
