Beyond The Classroom: What TAFE Didn’t Teach You as an NDIS Support Worker

💬 Because real support work doesn’t come with a textbook.

TAFE can prepare you for the theory — but nothing prepares you for your first few months on the job.

This book is for the workers who’ve been in the field long enough to realise that support work isn’t just about tasks — it’s about people, emotions, and tough lessons no classroom could ever cover.

Inside, you’ll find:

🌿 Real examples of on-shift challenges and what to do

💬 Communication and boundary-setting tips that build respect

🌸 Strategies for handling burnout and emotional exhaustion

💜 Reflection prompts that help you grow from experience

This is the honest, raw, and relatable guide every support worker wishes they had when things got hard.

💬 Because real growth doesn’t happen in comfort — it happens in reflection.
