Purpose
The purpose of core standards is to promote professional development and continuous improvement for practitioners working with people with disability by outlining the minimum requirements necessary to work effectively with people with disability, their families/carers, support workers and other professionals. They also serve to maintain consistency across practitioners’ work as they form part of a practitioner’s learning plan
Additional Information
They do not replace traditional professional training and are not meant to imply the boundaries of professional knowledge, nor are they intended to limit professional development areas. Core standards also benefit people who use nutrition and dietetic services through guiding practitioners to maintain standards of safe, evidence-based and contemporary practice.
