Learn what you need. Understand your responsibilities. Build with confidence.
Starting a job, volunteering, providing a service or establishing a business can be challenging when you do not
know what training, checks, registrations or requirements may apply.
Government information is often available online, but finding the right information, understanding the
requirements and knowing where to start can be difficult — particularly for people who are new to Australia or
unfamiliar with government systems.
Generosity Community Empowering Program is a community education initiative designed to help people
understand the practical knowledge, training, checks, registrations and resources that may be relevant to their
work, volunteering or business activities.
Turning Information Into Understanding
Our goal is not simply to tell people where information is available

We bring relevant information into an easy-to-understand learning environment through community classes,
information sessions and practical workshops.
Where appropriate, we help participants understand where they can access official government information and
available training, including courses or resources that may be free or subsidised.
What We Can Help You Understand
Depending on the needs of the community, our sessions may cover areas such as:
Working With Children
Understanding Working with Children Checks and when they may be required for employment or volunteering
involving children.
First Aid & CPR
Understanding the importance of first aid training, CPR and relevant workplace or community requirements.
Food Safety
Understanding food safety training and the responsibilities that may apply when working with or preparing
food.
Workplace Health & Safety
Learning about basic workplace health and safety responsibilities and where to access relevant training and
information.
Responsible Service & Industry Requirements
Understanding when specific training, licences, permits or certificates may be required for particular industries
or activities.
Volunteer Requirements
Helping volunteers understand common checks, training, responsibilities and organisational requirements.
Starting a Business
Introducing people to important areas to consider before starting a business, including registrations, licences,
insurance, taxation, workplace responsibilities and government resources.
Government & Community Resources
Helping people navigate official government portals and identify reliable information, services, training and
support that may be available to them.
Practical Community Classes
Our sessions are designed to be practical and easy to understand.
Rather than expecting people to search through multiple government websites and documents on their own, we
bring the information together in a classroom environment and explain:

• What is it?
• Why might I need it?
• Who needs it?
• Where do I get it?
• How do I apply or enrol?
• What does it cost?
• What do I need to do next?

Where an official government course, portal or application is available, we aim to direct participants to the
official source rather than replacing the government provider or accredited training organisation.
Empowering People Through Knowledge
We believe that knowledge can create opportunity.
A person who understands the requirements of their industry can make better-informed decisions, prepare
properly and approach employment, volunteering or business opportunities with greater confidence.
Our aim is to make useful information accessible, understandable and practical for the community.
Our Philosophy
We do not believe that people should be disadvantaged simply because they do not know where to find
information.
Generosity aims to help bridge the gap between information and understanding.
Through community education, experienced volunteers and practical information sessions, we want to help
people become more confident in navigating Australian systems and developing their own opportunities.
Learn. Understand. Prepare. Empower.
Our Aim
To empower people with practical knowledge about the training, checks, registrations, responsibilities
and resources that can help them participate safely, confidently and productively in Australian
community and working life.
Generosity Community Empowering Program provides community education and information. Specific
requirements vary according to the person’s role, industry, location and circumstances. Participants will be
directed to relevant official government or accredited providers for applications, formal training, certification
and current requirements.
