Diploma of Ageing Studies and Services Webinar

The Diploma of Ageing Studies and Services is the only undergraduate diploma within Australia focusing on ageing studies and services and addresses the need for holistic knowledge of the ageing process. The Diploma will cover contemporary issues relating to care and services for older people. You will learn about the many social and health challenges that are associated with ageing.
This course, developed and delivered by the Wicking Dementia Research and Education Centre, is ideal for those working with older adults in health, community, aged care, or other sectors, as well as those eager to be part of this expanding workforce.
You'll gain knowledge on the social and biological aspects of ageing; chronicity and palliative care; age-related discrimination and prejudice; public health; and administrative processes related to policy and aged care.
As society moves towards having more older adults than children and young people, it is vital that our social services and infrastructures are reimagined and redesigned to support this growing demographic.
