Guide to workforce training and resources
Essential Knowledge under the Aged Care Act 2024
A guide to workforce training and resources
The Aged Care Act 2024 sets out what's expected of everyone working in aged care – but knowing exactly what training applies to your role isn't always straightforward.
This guide brings together two things in one place: the level of understanding different staffing groups need across the Act's key activity areas, and where to find the training and resources to build that knowledge. It's for CHSP and Support at Home-funded providers, and covers everyone from responsible persons and managers through to direct program staff and volunteers.

Training options and resources change, and we won't always know about everything that's out there. If you use a course, resource or tool that's helped your team build the knowledge this guide covers, and you don't see it listed, let us know. We'll review it and add it if it's a good fit.
