Violence, Abuse, Neglect, Exploitation and Discrimination Training for Support Workers

Building Safer, More Respectful Care Environments

In the care and support industry, safety goes beyond physical wellbeing — it includes protecting the rights, dignity, and voice of every participant. The Violence, Abuse, Neglect, Exploitation and Discrimination course by 2Skill empowers workers to identify, prevent, and respond to these critical issues with professionalism and empathy.

This training is essential for anyone working under the NDIS Code of Conduct, where respect, safety, and accountability are non-negotiable.


Why This Training Is Essential

Support workers play a key role in safeguarding vulnerable individuals from harm. Unfortunately, abuse and neglect can sometimes occur in care settings — even unintentionally — due to lack of awareness or inadequate training.

This course helps workers:

  • Recognise the signs of violence, neglect, or exploitation

  • Understand the rights of participants under the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Framework

  • Respond appropriately and report incidents following organisational procedures

  • Prevent discrimination and promote inclusive, respectful practices

  • Create environments where participants feel safe, heard, and valued

Every worker’s knowledge and vigilance contributes to a safer and more compassionate care culture.

What the Course Covers

Delivered online and fully self-paced, this 2Skill course offers practical, scenario-based learning designed for both new and experienced support workers.
Key topics include:

  • Understanding types of abuse and neglect

  • Recognising exploitation and coercion

  • Maintaining professional boundaries

  • Promoting equity, human rights, and cultural safety

By completing this course, learners will gain the confidence to act decisively and ethically when faced with potential risk situations.
