The Learning at Work Book (LaWB) is a community and work-based approach to Vocational Education and Training (VET) and is a move away from the competency and workshop based model of training.

The book offers an opportunity for learners to:
* develop and apply their skills and knowledge in their daily practice and
* become qualified in Certificate I (Work Preparation), II Community Services
(Children’s Services) and III in Children’s Services.
* remain in their communities and Children’s Services workplaces

The workbook contains culturally relevant examples and allows the learners to work through the Work Book at their own pace. A community mentor and/or Learning Co-ordinator will be selected to support the learner. The LaWB approach is compiled in a way that ensures students gain qualifications as they work through Certificate I, II and III.
