Download the Project Profile

Following the Community Mental Health Workforce Project completed in July 2021 by Queensland Alliance for Mental Health (QAMH), it was identified as critical for purpose-built training to respond to workforce gaps and needs in NDIS psychosocial personnel and the wider community mental health workforce.

An Industry-tailored solution

The Navigating the NDIS for the Psychosocial Workforce Micro-Credential Pilot will be developed and delivered by TAFE Queensland in partnership with QAMH and existing workers delivering NDIS psychosocial supports.

It will be available to formally and non-formally trained and qualified personnel in the sector and provides a flexible, quality training program that can be leveraged to progress further formal qualifications.

This micro-credential will address the following knowledge areas for workers:

  • An understanding of mental illness
  • Recovery-focussed practice in the NDIS
  • Trauma-informed care
