Purpose

The Innovator Training Program will support the development of a cohort of aged care staff with the confidence and knowledge to introduce evidence-based practices and projects into their organisations.

Overview

The LIFT Leadership Program covers the fundamental skills and knowledge that managers need to lead teams through innovation, implementation and change.

  • 100% online
  • Interactive and engaging learning modules
  • Facilitated group workshops with like-minded peers from other organisations.
  • For organisations wanting to build leadership capability within teams of staff across your organisation, LIFT Together is a tailored version of the program that can focus on specific innovation leadership and culture challenges in your organisation.

 

Eligibility

ARIIA invites eligible applicants to apply for a 100% scholarship. To be eligible to apply, you must meet one of the following criteria:

  • Applicant provides aged care services located in Rural and Remote zones (MMM classification 3 to 7)
  • Applicant provides aged care services specifically to vulnerable populations
  • Applicant provides aged care services specifically for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander care recipients (ACCO)
  • Small and medium-sized organisations with fewer than 250 beds, packages,
    or clients

These scholarships are intended for organisations that serve communities facing unique challenges in delivering aged care and are approved by the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission to deliver Australian Government-subsidised home, residential, or flexible care services. In some cases, applicants employed by other organisations may also be eligible, at the discretion of ARIIA's Research Director.

If you or your organisation meets one of these criteria, we encourage you to apply for a 100% scholarship and take advantage of this opportunity to build your, or your staff's capacity through the LIFT Leadership Program.
