Attention Students!

We would like to inform you about a recent surge in cyber scams. Your security is of utmost importance to us, and we want to ensure that you stay safe from potential threats.

Scammers have been employing sophisticated tactics to deceive individuals and steal sensitive information. It’s essential to be vigilant and cautious when dealing with online communications and transactions.

For IHNA’s students, it’s good to know that IHNA’s bank account details are not shared through email. Instead, the information is accessible through the secure Student Hub under Student Invoice & Payment. This method ensures that only authorised users with secure login credentials can access and view the information.

Additionally, making payments through the IHNA website provides another secure option for transactions, ensuring that personal and financial details are handled in a safe and protected environment.

For any questions or concerns related to payments or account details, students should reach out to IHNA directly through official contact channels (accounts@ihna.edu.au) to ensure the highest level of security and privacy.

MODE OF DELIVERY

BLENDED

The Blended mode of delivery of theory and simulation-based training will be achieved mostly through virtual classrooms and professional experience placement (PEP) at relevant workplaces.

The blended mode of delivery will accommodate students across Australia

Simulation based training and assessment will be conducted online and/or through a real time video streaming. Face-to-face simulation-based training and assessment may be conducted if required

Modules will be delivered through IHNA LMS, and students will be expected to complete the formative assessments as part of the learning process.

Educators will share information referencing to online books and videos recommended for the course and instruct students to complete exercises and post in discussion forums created in LMS. Educators can review and provide feedback for the activities/posts in real-time or later.

Simulation assessments may be arranged upon completing theoretical aspects of the units within a study period.

Students can commence the Professional Experience Placement after completing Simulation-Based Assessments satisfactorily.

The course includes 16 hours of Professional Experience Placement (PEP).

Trainers/ Assessors or delegates will visit the PEP venue to observe students in the workplace environment and complete the observation checklist. Feedback of student participation and initiative will be taken from the workplace supervisor

There are no formal entry requirements for this course; however, applicants should demonstrate ability to perform tasks as required by the industry. This includes that you have:

  • 16 years of age and above at the time of commencement of the course*
  • Successful completion of an Australian Year 11 course or equivalent.
  • *Mature age students (22+) may also be considered without the minimum education requirements. Each case will be reviewed individually to ascertain the capacity of the applicant to meet course requirements.

    #Students below 18 years of age should have consent from their parents prior to getting enrolment in any courses.

Additional Requirements

  • Language, Literacy and Numeracy (LLN) requirement
    All students are required to undergo the LLN test proffered by IHNA for their suitability to be determined for undertaking the course successfully.
  • Digital literacy
    • Basic computer skills covering the most common usages of a computer, including managing computer files, word processing, using spreadsheets and databases; creating presentations; finding information and communicating using computers; and being aware of social and ethical implications of Internet use.

    • Having own computer (desktop or laptop) to facilitate the training and assessment.

Professional Experience Placement (PEP) requirements

  • A satisfactory National Police Clearance (NCC) or Australian Federal Police (AFP) Clearance certificate
  • Required immunisation
  • Working with Children Check (WWCC)
  • Students must declare a disability or disorder (if any), or if they are on any medication which may require reasonable adjustments.

Where a student breaches the above requirements, they could be excluded from their practical placements which may result in unsuccessful completion of the course.

Our approach is to collect evidence on whether the student can perform to the standards of the workplace. This is based on the relevant unit of competency, and you’ll find these tools being used:

  • Theory Assessments (TA)
  • Knowledge Based Assessments (KBA)
  • Simulation Based Assessments (SBA)
  • Professional Experience Placement (PEP)

With RPL we assess your competency based on formal, non-formal, informal learning or direct work experience based on the required skills of the course.

We use CT where you’ve completed units of study at another TAFE College or Registered Training Organisation that meet the requirements of another course. We grant credit according to the Certification, Issuing, and Recognition of Qualifications and Statements of Attainment. Assessing a CT is free.

If you’re eligible for RPL or CT you may be able to complete the course in a shorter duration with reduction to total course fees. Check your eligibility with us.
