Thank you @SmilingGecko. I am usually pretty good with my time management but have had issues with so much content as this module is all about drugs and alcohol and being an intake worker role and feel like we are skimming over a lot of things you would need to be able to do that role successfully post certificate.
I really don't feel role plays as assessment works especially as a replacement for having actual work placements. 14 online quizzes and researching and refererencing various acts on various topics associated with the module.
It's not like we even have practice role plays throughout the course so you will be strong for the actual assessment day. I have always been someone who learns by doing not so much listening to huge amounts of content ( Autism and AHAD at its best)
The majority of it is a teacher talking at us and her showing multiple powerpoints and ted talks.
We do one subject on a Monday and a different subject on a Tuesday both subjects assessments due a day a part and long marking checklist for each to pass just on the role play alone.
It hasn't been a lot of times I have walked out of a class and gone, I am not taking this subject in

Thanks @SmilingGecko Yes I'm open to listening to Subliminal Audio Recordings.
& Self-Hypnosis Recordings.
In fact I've been listening to some daily, for several weeks.
Not familiar with your suggested audio, am willing to give it a try.
I don't have NDIS - They rejected my application, several years ago.
This is a MH provider, whose funding comes from the MH Commission, etc.
Mostly they focus on running Group Activities - Just a small part is one on one with a Support Worker.
The Support Worker is not supposed to be Compassionate, & they're not allowed to listen to a client's (persons) issues they told me - The Support Worker's Role is only to work on achieving the client's MH Recovery Goals.
Very Cold & Clinical, totally Goal-Focused.

I used to have to sit through role plying : in my eyes, You are thinking right @HelloKitty1981
Do you think that it’s really about your self in working with stigmatised people.
I bet you have it @HelloKitty1981
