Disability and Community Rehabilitation
Turn your caring attitude into a career
Help make the lives of others better with our Disability and Community Rehabilitation program. This one-year certificate (or two-year diploma) will mark the beginning of your career as a Disability Service professional, where you’ll impact the lives of children, adults, families and communities every day. You’ll learn to support people with a variety of challenges, and help them participate in community living.
Disability and Community Rehabilitation is right for you if you:
- have empathy and respect for other people
- possess a positive attitude and persistence
- have good communication skills, including well-developed listening skills
- motivate people
- have good organizational skills
- are able to work independently or as part of a team.
Make a difference
We’ll ensure you have all the skills necessary to be a vital part of this industry with our work-based practicum courses. You will learn to support people with developmental disabilities in respectful ways and be knowledgeable in values including empowerment, self-determination and advocacy. You can also choose to continue your education with a second year of studies to graduate with a Disability and Community Rehabilitation diploma.
Two practicums each year; 200 hours in the certificate and 300 additional hours in the diploma.
