360 GO 

360 GO runs for a full calendar year and has been designed in consultation with clinical and educational experts, alongside valuable insights from previous Graduates. Our aim is to provide you with a nurturing, encouraging, and highly personalised journey. Here’s a glimpse of what your Graduate year looks like at National 360:

•  Week 1 - Simulated Practice: Our Simulated Practice sessions provide a safe and controlled environment to practice your therapeutic skills and get comfortable with real-life scenarios before your first client session. Week 1 allows you to experiment, make mistakes, and learn from them.
•  Weeks 2-12 – Experiential Discovery: The best way to master the art of therapy is through experiential discovery – a dynamic, hands-on approach that immerses you in real-life situations. Weeks 2-12 are all about connecting new information to existing knowledge, with everyday applications to enhance the learning process.
• Weeks 13-26 – Theoretical Learning: Develop your clinical expertise by strengthening your theoretical foundation through engaging in immersive and interactive workshops facilitated by Speech Pathology subject matter experts.
• Weeks 27-52 – Individualised Development: A custom program will be designed with you so you can follow your preferred roadmap to excellence. Specialise in Paediatrics, Adult Neuro, Dysphagia or Complex Communication, dive into our L&D Programs for leadership roles or maintain a diverse caseload. We’ll be with you each step along the way.
    

Supervision & Support

We are well known for providing the most comprehensive supervision & support in the industry, complemented by ancillary learning opportunities to coach and develop the best Allied Health professionals in Australia. The support you receive as a 360 Graduate includes:

Your Clinical Supervisor and Team Leader will guide you on the best learnings relevant to your interests, skills, experience level and caseload.
• 2 hours of weekly Clinical Supervision – meet with your supervisor 1:1 each week to discuss your caseload, attend group supervision to engage in peer learning, and receive behind-the-scenes support to review your reports & therapy plans.
• Weekly Team Leader Support – meet with your Team Leader 1:1 to support your understanding of organisational procedures, set achievable goals to work towards, and discuss your wellbeing and work/life balance.
