Thank you for your interest in Certificate IV in Education Support (CHC40213) with Australian Training Professionals.

There is currently a huge demand for Education Assistants to help teachers in schools by providing classroom support to students with a wide range of severe learning, physical and or behavioural difficulties. Assistants may work in a special school or in a mainstream school.
