Support and development for TEI service providers

To assist our service providers in making TEI as effective as possible, support and development is available in the following forms:

Change Together

Change Together is a learning program for non-government practitioners working with children and families who are receiving Targeted Earlier Intervention, Family Connect and Support or Family Preservation services funded by the Department of Communities and Justice. The program provides free training to complement the professional learning of individual non-government organisations.

Other training

Centre for Community Welfare Training (CCWT)

Fams has partnered with the Governance Institute of Australia and CCWT to offer access to training opportunities to TEI services. 

DV-alert Training

DV-alert is a nationally recognised training funded by the Australian Government Department of Social Services and a key initiative under the National Plan to End Violence against Women and Children 2022-2032.

The training is designed to support frontline workers, health, allied health, educators, community sector workers and volunteers to provide public awareness and equip workers to recognise the signs of domestic and family violence (DFV) and knowing what to do next. It will provide valuable foundational training for any staff in contact with DFV victim-survivors.

A range of free foundational eLearning and public awareness workshops are available to learn how to:

• recognise the signs of domestic and family violence,
• respond appropriately and
• refer to support services.

The website offers a range of flexible learning options that include self-paced eLearning, face to face workshops and awareness courses.
