One way that we do this is through offering traineeships.<\/p>\n<p>In 2023, we had six colleagues who completed their Level 3 Certificate in Cleaning Operations (through the Australian College of Training).<\/p>\n<p>The 14 units of study are provided as \u2018paid training\u2019 opportunities and include units such as contributing to the health and safety of self and others, applying infection prevention and control procedures to own work activities, and working in a team.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout the training trainees may work alone, with or without supervision, and have the responsibility for selecting, preparing and using appropriate cleaning methods for a range of cleaning situations while ensuring safe work practices.<\/p>\n<p>On completion of the traineeship, our colleagues are confident in undertaking numerous cleaning tasks, liaising with customers and operating safely in a range of residential and commercial settings and environments, as well as specialist cleaning environments.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a great opportunity for colleagues to enhance their skills\u00a0and achieve a nationally recognised certificate \u2013 for some, the first qualification they have received.<\/p>\n    <\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":10000018543,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[19,54],"tags":[228,203,53],"country":[],"class_list":["post-16497","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-type","category-our-people","tag-australia","tag-learning-development","tag-our-people"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.4 (Yoast SEO v27.4) -
