At CDERP we have a range of PD programs that are on offer, with new PD programs being developed to meet the needs of employment service professionals. With the current environment our new way of life for the foreseeable future, we’re taking the opportunity to progressively move a number of our face to face programs to the online environment. We can also develop and deliver bespoke PD that meets your individual organisational needs. Our PD programs will soon find a new home at CDERP College.

We offer two short courses designed to educate families, advocates and self-directed clients on the process of discovery and customised employment. The one day course; Customised Employment Deconstructed,  provides participants with a basic understanding of Customised Employment and Discovery and how it fits into employment support planning.

The second program; Discovery for Families and Self-Advocates is delivered in two one day sessions. It examines the various versions of Discovery, how to undertake them, strategies for engaging with employers and when to know to ask for advice and support.

Systematic Instruction

Systematic Instruction was pioneered by the late Dr. Marc Gold whose TAW (Try Another Way) model revolutionised methods used to train people with significant disabilities a wide range of skills, with a particular focus on employment. Marc Gold was a firm believer that ‘anyone can learn if we can figure out a way to teach them.”
Bespoke Training

Our research and practice provides us with unique insight into the challenges and opportunities that exist in the employment arena. We use this insight and evidence to develop our programs and offer organisations the option of receiving purpose designed training and development. This is often the result of internal reviews that we undertake within organisations to identify gaps and opportunities. If you have a need or know you need something but can’t work it out, talk to us and let’s develop a solution unique to the challenges that you face.

“You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.” – Buckminister Fuller.
We can live with that.
