Working in schools means navigating tricky conversations, whether with upset students, concerned parents, or fellow staff. With the right tools, these stressful moments can become opportunities to build trust and calm rather than conflict.

Join ASC Training & Development’s Managing Director, Tony Stone, for our highly practical, results-oriented online workshop: ‘Managing Conflict and Difficult Conversations for Teachers and Support Staff in Schools'.

Designed specifically for the education sector, this interactive session will equip you to handle tough phone calls, face-to-face encounters, and peer-to-peer friction confidently.

What you’ll learn:
✅ Identify conflict triggers and warning signs
✅ De-escalate heated situations using the HEAT model
✅ Master difficult phone calls and face-to-face conversations
✅ Recognise what helps, and what hinders, effective communication

Leave feeling more prepared, more confident, and in control when tough conversations arise.

Proud to support Foodbank SA & Central Australia for the 4th year running! 🌟

Last week, the ASC Training & Development team attended the annual Foodbank Luncheon. It was a fantastic event with an inspiring panel discussion featuring Natasha Stott Despoja AO, Brigid Koenig (CEO, Glenelg Football Club) and Emily Perry, GM Community at RAA. We really enjoyed hearing the perspectives shared around leadership, community, advocacy and empowering women to create meaningful change.

It was an honour to hear a special address from Her Excellency the Honourable Frances Adamson AC, Governor of South Australia and Patron of Foodbank SA & NT, alongside Katrine Hildyard, Minister for Child Protection, Minister for Domestic, Family and Sexual Violence and Minister for Women. A huge thank you to MC Lucy Hinton and Panel Facilitator Sonya Feldhoff for guiding such an insightful discussion.

The statistics shared were a sobering reminder of why this work matters:
• Over 282,000 households across SA & NT went hungry in the past year.
• More than one-third of households at some stage didn’t know where their next meal was coming from.
• Foodbank supports over 152,000 people every month, and heartbreakingly, more than one-third of these are children.

At ASC, we believe in the power of community. It is incredible to know that every $1 donated allows Foodbank to create two meals for those in need.

Thank you to everyone involved in such an engaging and thought-provoking event.

We are proud to stand alongside Foodbank as they continue their mission as Australia’s largest food relief organisation. 💜

Build stronger Team Leaders. Improve quality outcomes. Reduce risk.

Many aged care providers promote exceptional carers into Team Leader roles, but without specific leadership training, frontline challenges like communication breakdowns, inconsistent supervision, and performance issues can arise.

&Development's Aged Care Team Leader Capability Program, incorporating the Certificate IV in Leadership and Management (BSB40520), is designed specifically to bridge this gap.

This isn't a generic qualification. It is:

✅ Fully contextualised to the aged care environment.
✅ Aligned with Aged Care Quality Standards.
✅ Practical, using real workplace scenarios and projects to drive immediate impact.

Why invest?
Stronger leadership leads to improved audit readiness, reduced complaints, and lower staff turnover, potentially saving thousands in recruitment costs. Plus, eligible employers and learners may receive up to $2,500 each in support payments and incentives.
