Community Centres and Neighbourhood Houses deliver exciting programs of workforce development. These programs assist individuals to learn new skills, meet other people, improve confidence and to find out about local services.

Workforce Development

In 2003, a mapping report identified there was a business and management skills shortage in the sector (e.g. Entrepreneurship, Human Resource Management, Financial Management, Quality Assurance, Occupational Health and Safety, Legislation, Risk Management).

Since 2005, CANH has been involved in up-skilling the management skills of the paid and unpaid workers in community centres and neighbourhood houses to improve sustainability of the community sector and develop its capacity-building potential.

In partnership with TAFE SA Regional as the RTO [40161], there are 4 courses currently offered as part of the workforce development strategy.

  • Certificate IV in Volunteer Program Coordination CHC42708
  • Diploma of Community Services Coordination CHC52208
  • Advanced Diploma of Community Sector Management CHC60308
  • Certificate IV in Training and Assessment TAA40104
