Quit SA - Register for training

Quitskills, Quit SA’s foremost training program, is a competency based, nationally recognised program on smoking cessation. Aligned with the Australian Quality Training Framework, Quit SA has partnered with TafeSA to deliver a comprehensive, skills based program directly to health and community service workers. The three units of competence are from a Certificate III or IV in Population Health from the Health Training Package. The units are;

· HLTPOP402B Assess readiness for and effect behaviour change

· HLTPOP403B Provide information on smoking and smoking cessation

· HLTPOP404B Provide interventions to clients who are nicotine dependent

The course covers a range of topics, including;

· The history and use of tobacco

· Regulation and legislation

· Health consequences

· Cessation methods and products

· Intervention

· Organisational environment

· Quit SA services

Quitskills is a full-day training program which also includes some pre and post assessment activities. A modified program can be offered where participants graduate with the same topics, however do not complete the assessment items and therefore do not receive the units of competence.

Quitskills dates for 2010 are:

Tuesday 30 November

8.45am to 5.00pm

All of these sessions will be run at the Cancer Council SA. Free all day parking is available adjacent to the parklands - across the road from the Cancer Council SA (Greenhill Rd).

Registrations close one week prior to the session and pre-reading and assessment items will be sent to registered participants on this date.
