SARIC in Workplace
SARIC in Workplace

Drawing from the best practices of Australia Awards, all SARIC course participants are required to complete a ‘SARIC in Workplace’ (SiW) plan during the training phase. SiW is designed to help participants focus on the outcomes of the training and to integrate the learnings with their work. These plans are developed along with the training partners and would include a set of activities aligned to the project identified which may be undertaken once the participant is back to work. Palladium and the training partner work together to ensure that the ‘SARIC in Workplace’ plan aligns to the requirements of the participants’ workplace needs.
