Stirling is seeking passionate and experienced trainers to join our dynamic team to facilitate our Diploma of Mental Health (CHC53315).  Our Diploma of Mental Health is one of Stirling's most popular qualifications, with our trainers responsible for delivering hands-on, dynamic training to amazing students from all backgrounds and demographics.

To be able to teach this qualification, you must have a Certificate IV in Training and Assessment (TAE40116) and a qualification, or suitable experience, in Mental Health.  If you have not completed a TAE, or do not have the latest level, we are more than happy to support applicants through the process of obtaining this.

• You will be required to work towards Stirling’s compliance requirements, such as completing attendance registers or supporting surveys.
• The Diploma in Mental Health is delivered one day a week over approximately 12 months.
• This is a contract position – payment is on a invoice ABN arrangement and is based on your day of training and other factors, such as the number of assignments assessed.
• We are seeking trainers to commence as soon as possible, however we will run this qualification several times during the year all across Victoria, so we are always keen to hear from those available in the future.
