Professional Development
|
NESA works to achieve the ongoing
development, professional capacity and increase recognition of
the employment services industry and its personnel.
|
|
NESA works in partnership and
collaboration with relevant bodies in the vocational, educational
and training sector with regards to the development and
implementation of relevant accredited training for the
industry.
Training available includes a range
of accredited and non accredited courses. Employment Services
Qualifications both from the Community Services and Health Industry
Skills Council and Business Services streams from certificate
through to diploma level are offered. A wide range of
delivery options exist including recognition of prior learning,
recognition of current competency, distance education, traineeship
and class based training.
Utilising relationships with
training organisations, NESA is also able to offer a broad range of
professional development options designed specifically for
employment service industry professionals. NESA is able to
influence the training available and ensure that it is tailored and
responsive to specific needs and addresses identified issues faced
by the industry.
| An aim of NESA is to
support our members with limited resources while providing
excellent professional development opportunities. We do this by
keeping the cost of our workshops competitive within the market
place. NESA does not deliver workshops directly. Instead we
contract subject experts to develop and deliver our workshops. |
 |
In this way NESA ensures that the
workshop's content is contemporary and relevant. NESA members are
regularly invited to provide suggestions for future workshop
topics. This occurs in parallel to NESA responding to subject/topic
areas often contained in the variety of government policy and
employment services contacts that govern our industry.
NESA workshops are delivered from a
centrally located venue in each capital city. These create a
valuable opportunity to meet and bench mark (if you wish) with
other NESA members working in the industry. The workshops are also
available to be delivered in-house in your premises or if you
prefer, conveniently located training facility close to your
premises.
NESA members are invited to make contact with the NESA
Professional Development Coordinator, Max Croft at the
NESA office on 03 9686 3500 to discuss your
training needs.
