Practitioner skills
Training Needs Analysis
Ensure your workforce has the right qualifications, skills, and training to deliver the best outcomes for their clients.
We review your service to understand what you need, we establish benchmarks of best practice for your service type, we look at the key skills you need, and advise where your team needs additional training, supervision, or qualifications.
The right people with the right skills in the right positions means more effective outcomes and less risk of burnout in your team.
Workforce Policy
Develop a sound evidence-based workforce policy to ensure you can effectively manage workforce supply and demand for the long and short term.
We look at business analysis, job design, recruitment, retention, resource identification, support structures, and capacity development to ensure you have the right policies in place to support the most effective workforce.
We help you integrate your workforce policy into your strategic plan to provide a framework for resourcing decisions that support your organisation’s vision and goals.
Case study: St Vincent de Paul QLD
Model of service review, program revision and facilitator training
We partnered with St Vincent de Paul QLD to increase the evidence base of the therapeutic elements of their treatment program. The project had two key objectives, to review and revise the model of care and to develop content for 12 modules for the group program that is delivered in 6 residential rehabs across Queensland. This work was reinforced through training group facilitators in the delivery of the 12 modules.
