Education and Professional Development overview

Through the education and professional development program, NARI promotes accurate information about ageing and older people and enables best practice in the health and aged care workforce.

We make a measurable difference to the lives of older people and those who care for them.

Here are what some of our past attendees had to say about the program:

"This workshop provided good practical advice around real-world case studies and exposure to some useful tools for further exploration." - Participant from co-design workshop

"I have never been able to attend the seminars due to the distance from my workplace. I welcome the online accessibility" - Regular attendee of our Seminars program
