Certificate III in Individual Support

Are you working 20+ hours per week in home care, aged care, or disability support, but haven’t yet gained your CHC33021 – Certificate III in Individual Support?

With Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL), you can turn your existing skills and work experience into a nationally recognised qualification through our partner RTOs—without the need for classroom study.

Certify your Skills and Advance Your Career in Individual Support

If you’re already working in home care, aged care, or disability support, getting your skills recognised can help you move forward in your career.

By completing the CHC33021 – Certificate III in Individual Support through Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL), you can turn your existing experience into a nationally recognised qualification—without starting from scratch.

This qualification can lead to roles such as Support Worker, Aged Care Worker, Disability Support Worker, or Home Care Assistant. With further experience, you can also progress into senior roles like Team Leader or Care Coordinator.

These roles often come with more responsibility and better pay, as many employers prefer candidates with formal qualifications.

It’s ideal for people already working in aged care, disability support, or home care roles.

It usually takes a few weeks, depending on how quickly you submit your documents.

Yes, it is a nationally recognised qualification issued by a Registered Training Organisation (RTO).
