About the course
What can I expect out of this qualification?
This micro-credential is primarily intended to address the professional development needs of those
employed in family violence prevention and intervention frontline service provision and to more
formally validate the necessary specialist skills and knowledge. Workforce capability and capacity is a
well-documented target in the sector and is a growing focus of government policy.
Te Aorerekura, a 25-year national strategy to eliminate family violence and sexual violence, was
launched in December 2021, after feedback from thousands of people. A joint venture called Te Puna
Aonui was created, pooling resources from 14 government agencies to deliver on this strategy and
achieve its six aims; one of which is 'skilled, culturally competent, and sustainable workforces'. This
micro-credential helps to enact that strategy.
This micro-credential not only represents a standalone credential, but also potentially the core
component of a constellation of courses which would allow graduates to go on and specialise in
practice areas representing some of the multiple aspects of family violence prevention.
