- Overview of Family Assistance Law and National Law
- Fit and proper person requirements
- Persons with management or control
- Family Assistance Law notification requirements
- Understanding enrolments
- Reporting sessions of care
- Fraud awareness
- Electronic payment of gap fees.
New courses will be announced through the Department’s newsletter or via its Facebook group.
