Built Around Real Workplace Contexts

The Standards for RTOs require training and assessment to reflect genuine workplace conditions, current industry expectations and the responsibilities learners will encounter in practice. For this unit, authentic workplace practice includes supporting individual communication preferences, using augmentative and alternative communication systems appropriately, and responding respectfully to people with diverse communication needs.

Our CHCDIS014 training materials help trainers connect learning with genuine workplace activities, including developing communication strategies, interpreting communication profiles, using symbols and devices, supporting communication partners, documenting outcomes and reviewing the effectiveness of selected systems. Activities can be contextualised around the procedures, technology and reporting requirements used by each organisation.

Disability Support Services

Disability support workers may use communication books, picture-based systems, speech-generating devices, gestures or other methods to support people in daily routines, decision-making and community participation.

CHCDIS014 training resources help trainers contextualise learning and assessment around person-centred plans, communication profiles, support-team collaboration and accurate workplace documentation. Learners can practise selecting appropriate strategies, responding to changes in communication needs and maintaining the person’s choice, control and dignity.

Community Participation and Day Programs

In day programs and community participation services, workers support communication during group activities, appointments, transport, shopping and social interactions. Consistent use of communication systems is essential when several staff or communication partners are involved.

Trainers can use CHCDIS014 learning materials to develop scenarios involving community access, routine planning, unfamiliar communication partners and changes to the environment. Assessment activities can focus on preparing systems, facilitating participation, recording observations and sharing relevant information with the support team.

Education and Transition Support

Workers supporting children or young people with disability may use augmentative and alternative communication systems across classrooms, recreation, personal care and transitions between services. Strategies need to align with individual goals and be applied consistently across settings.

CHCDIS014 RTO training materials support contextualisation for collaboration with families, teachers, allied health professionals and other support workers. Learners can complete practical tasks involving communication opportunities, modelling system use, adjusting support to the individual and reporting how strategies affected engagement and participation.

Any Delivery Mode

The editable resources support classroom delivery, workplace delivery, blended learning and online delivery. Trainers can contextualise learning activities, examples and assessments for their learner cohort, workplace setting, available communication systems and organisational procedures while keeping delivery focused on practical application.

Just sharing my experience with these resources. The resources that we have purchased from RTO Learning Materials were expectional during audit and mainly when these were implemented with trainers and students. At start it was a bit hard for our trainer's to fully absorb these resources as they are very detailed as compared to the old ones that we have been using but once trainers were able to complete their learning it was a piece of cake to collect and collate evidence from students. Furthermore, during our pre-validation meetings we have also observed that the learning component is very well covered thereby providing enough information for our trainers to keep students engaged at all times. I would also like to highlight a staff member from sales team 'Mr. Amar Shah' who has been exceptional in his service and goes beyond his call of duty. Thank you Amar and RTO Learning Materials for all your support. Regards, Amit Thakur
