2 <strong>Positive</strong> behaviour support: Getting it right from the start - Facilitators reference manual<br />
Learning outcomes, assessment and achieving competency<br />
Successful completion <strong>of</strong> this training package requires you to attend the three day program<br />
and competently complete homework requirements provided at the end <strong>of</strong> Day 2. The program<br />
facilitator will tell you if you have met the requirements.<br />
The program, however, does not lead to achievement <strong>of</strong> a formal acredited competency.<br />
If you wish to seek formal recognition for the skills and knowledge you have acquired through<br />
this program, the following guidelines will assist you.<br />
The content, activities and homework tasks contained in this package should enable you to meet<br />
the following learning outcomes:<br />
• Demonstrate understanding <strong>of</strong> the influence and purpose <strong>of</strong> behaviour<br />
• Assess problem behaviour<br />
• Develop multi-element support plans to meet individual needs<br />
• Develop an individual response plan<br />
• Monitor effectiveness <strong>of</strong> response plan<br />
• Complete documentation<br />
These learning outcomes are contained in the unit <strong>of</strong> competency entitled Plan and provide<br />
advanced behaviour support (National code: CHCICS404A)<br />
This unit <strong>of</strong> competency forms a compulsory unit in Certificate IV in Disability (National course<br />
code: CHC40308), and an elective unit in the Advanced Diploma <strong>of</strong> Disability (National course<br />
code: CHC60108).<br />
Both these courses are contained in the Community <strong>Services</strong> Training Packages CHC08, which<br />
are nationally recognised qualifications relevant to this industry.<br />
If you are seeking formal recognition <strong>of</strong> competency for this unit, you will need to approach<br />
a registered training organisation (RTO) that delivers the relevant courses. An RTO is the only<br />
organisation type that can provide formal recognition <strong>of</strong> competency. This includes TAFEs and<br />
private providers. The RTO will explain the process, fee and evidence they require to assess<br />
your knowledge and skills against this competency. If the RTO is satisfied you have produced<br />
adequate evidence, you will be formally given the unit <strong>of</strong> competency.<br />
It is recommended the following evidence be provided to the RTO:<br />
• The learners manual including the completed activities<br />
• The homework completed at the end <strong>of</strong> Day 2 (all participants should have a copy)<br />
• The RTO will also ask seek additional evidence to see that you have applied the knowledge<br />
and skills in your workplace.<br />
The individual RTO will instruct you according to their own requirements, policies and<br />
procedures.<br />
Your regional Learning and Development co-ordinator may be able to suggest an RTO to<br />
approach.
