Rubix Support’s Training and Development service delivers expert, tailored training to disability service providers, child protective services, education settings and other direct support professionals across Melbourne and Victoria. Our trainers bring real-world clinical expertise — not just theory — having collectively trained more than 3,000 support workers in the Positive Behaviour Support framework.

Whether you’re looking to upskill your entire organisation, train a new team of support workers, or build sector-wide capability in specialist areas, Rubix Support can design a program that fits your team, your context and your goals.

  • Disability support providers and their frontline support worker teams

  • Child protective services and out-of-home care organisations

  • Schools, education settings and early childhood services

  • Residential and Supported Independent Living (SIL) providers

  • Allied health teams working within disability and behaviour support contexts

  • Health services and community organisations supporting people with complex needs

We can deliver training to teams of any size, from small frontline groups to large organisation-wide programs.

  • On-site at your organisation across Melbourne and Victoria

Our Training Programs

Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) Training

Our PBS training is our most in-demand program and the foundation of everything Rubix Support does. Delivered by registered Behaviour Support Practitioners with decades of combined clinical experience, our PBS training equips support workers, care teams and organisational staff with the knowledge and practical skills to:

  • Understand what Positive Behaviour Support is and why it works

  • Recognise the function and triggers behind behaviours of concern

  • Implement Behaviour Support Plan strategies safely and consistently

  • Understand Restrictive Practices — what they are, how they are regulated and how to reduce reliance on them

  • Support the rights, dignity and quality of life of the people they work with

  • Fulfil their NDIS compliance obligations confidently

Trauma Informed Care Training

Trauma has a profound impact on behaviour, communication and wellbeing. Our Trauma Informed Care training helps teams understand how past trauma shapes the experiences of the people they support, and how to create environments and responses that promote safety, trust and healing rather than inadvertently re-traumatising.

This training is particularly valuable for teams supporting:

  • People with complex or dual diagnoses

  • Children and young people in out-of-home care

  • People with histories of abuse, neglect or institutionalisation

  • Individuals in forensic disability settings

Sexuality and Relationship Education (SRE) Training

People with disability have the same rights to healthy relationships and accurate sexuality education as anyone else — yet this area is frequently overlooked in professional development for support workers and carers. Our SRE training is delivered by qualified Developmental Educators who are also registered PBS Practitioners, giving teams the knowledge, language and confidence to:

  • Understand the importance of sexuality education as a human right for people with disability

  • Respond appropriately and supportively to questions, behaviours or situations relating to sexuality and relationships

  • Create environments where people with disability feel safe to express their identity and seek information

  • Support individuals receiving Sexuality and Relationship Education from Rubix Support’s SRE team

Our trainers have delivered PBS training to over 3,000 support workers across Melbourne and Victoria — making Rubix Support one of the most experienced PBS training providers in the disability sector.

Frequently Asked Questions
About Our Disability Sector Training

Our training is designed for disability support organisations, child protective services, education settings, SIL providers, health services and allied health teams. We work with frontline support workers through to team leaders and management, and can tailor content to suit any level of experience or professional background.

Rubix Support’s trainers have delivered Positive Behaviour Support training to more than 3,000 support workers across Melbourne and Victoria, making us one of the most experienced PBS training providers in the disability sector.

Yes. All of our training programs can be tailored to your organisation’s specific needs, the people you support, and the goals of your team. We can also design entirely bespoke programs around your unique training requirements — contact us to discuss what you have in mind.

In some circumstances, Behaviour Support Plan implementation training for support workers and carers can be funded through an NDIS participant’s Capacity Building budget as part of their behaviour support. Our PBS practitioners can advise on this as part of the broader behaviour support process. The standalone organisational training programs are typically funded directly by the organisation.

We deliver training both on-site at your organisation across Melbourne and Victoria, and online or via telehealth for distributed teams. We can discuss the best format for your team’s needs when you get in touch.

All of Rubix Support’s training is delivered by active clinical practitioners — registered PBS Practitioners, qualified Developmental Educators and experienced behaviour support clinicians — not outsourced facilitators. This means your team learns from people who are doing this work every day, with real clients, in real settings. Our trainers bring both clinical depth and a genuine commitment to improving outcomes for people with disability.

At Rubix Support we know that we are stronger and better together, and celebrate diversity in all its forms. We value and welcome people of all ages, cultures, abilities, sexuality, gender identity, religion, beliefs, lived experience and backgrounds.
