In line with DiSS feedback, we’ve reworked this training to be a hybrid model of self paced learning and live interactive webinars
For clinicians new to the DiSS program, the onboarding training modules will orientate you to the program, the principles and the practices of working in school based health services. Whether you are new to working with young people or experienced in the field, the modules are designed to enable you to build or benchmark best practice in developmentally appropriate and youth friendly healthcare. The self paced modules are designed to provide or refresh foundational knowledge whilst the interactive modules enable networking, peer learning and skill development.
Register for the onboarding package, work through the self paced materials and join your colleagues for the interactive workshops.
Participation in these sessions is compulsory and is remunerated at the agreed hourly rate (or in lieu of clinic hours for the week) for 8 hours of training.
