Chantel’s Story

After completing four weeks (120 hours) of organised practical placement with Multicap, Chantel successfully received her Certificate III in Individual Support. 

Chantel fondly reflects on the program and is grateful for the opportunity to learn more and develop her skills in preparation for the workforce. 

“I absolutely loved the program!” Chantel said. “The Multicap staff were so supportive through everything and I am so grateful they were there to support me,” she added. 

“I am so proud of myself!” Chantel said. 

“I have dyslexia and never thought I would be able to do some of the things that I have done in this program.” 

“It has been very rewarding for me and I have learned so much through Kate and Tina, and also the amazing customers,” she added. 

Chantel completed her work experience at the Mt. Ommaney Hub and thoroughly enjoyed working and supporting customers in community activities across Brisbane. 

“I have had some experience in Aged Care. However, working with customers one-on-one was so rewarding for me,” Chantel said.

“The customers are very intelligent and they taught me so much during my time with them.”

Through the program, Chantel has been able to successfully work towards the career change and path she is looking for. 

“My computer skills have improved and everything! It’s just great,” she said.  

“I really enjoyed the class work and the experience overall.”
