Certificate III in Individual Support (Disability) - CHC33015

This qualification reflects the role of workers in the community and/or residential setting who follow
an individual plan to provide support to people who may require support due to disability, ageing
or some other reason.
Work involves using discretion and judgement in relation to individual support as well as taking

responsibility for own outputs.
Workers have a range of factual, technical and procedural knowledge, as well as some theoretical
knowledge of the concepts and practices required to provide person-centred support.

The Certificate III in Individual Support (Disability) addresses the requirements to work primarily with
people with a disability. By undertaking the Certificate III in Individual Support (Disability) you will
establish skills and knowledge across the community sectors and increase employment
opportunities and outcomes, whilst supporting Disability Facilities with their needs. It will equip you
to capably and skilfully undertake a range of tasks including, but not limited to:

• Carrying out activities to maintain personal care and / or other activities for people living with
a disability;
• Carrying out activities related to an individualised plan;

• Reporting directly to a supervisor with no responsibility for other workers.
