Do you identify as living with disability? Have a love for food, coffee and customer service? Can’t stay out of the kitchen? Enjoy helping create fun and memorable experiences for others?
Then the HI Project is right for you!
What is the HI Project?
The HI Project is more than a training program, it’s a philosophy, a movement, a game-changer. It’s empowering people living with a disability, and supporting businesses to employ these passionate and dedicated individuals.
Learning alongside some of the best educators in Adelaide, the HI Project can kick-start the hospitality careers of people living with a disability.
What’s involved?
Participants will complete five Nationally Accredited units of competency and will receive a Statement of Attainment upon completion. Every unit has been tailored specifically for people with a disability, from the assessment tasks to the language used and the mode of delivery. The outcomes are the same, the units are delivered differently. Participants will study the following
Nationally Accredited units of competency:
• SITXFSA001 Use hygienic practices for food safety
• SITXWHS001 Participate in safe work practices
• SITHCCC001 Use food preparation equipment
• SITXCOM002 Show social and cultural sensitivity
On top of formal training, participants have access to non-accredited ‘Inclusive Waiter’ training
