CHC82015 is the nationally recognised Graduate Certificate in Client Assessment and Case Management. It prepares you for work as a community worker. It has been the current version on the national register since 2015, when it replaced CHC70208. Employers posted about 1,238 community worker jobs in June 2026, up 1.4% on a year earlier.
The signals behind the Graduate Certificate in Client Assessment and Case Management are mixed, and both sides are worth weighing. Employment is projected to grow through 2035 and enrolments are rising. The official shortage list does not rate its occupations in shortage. These are official statistics, not a promise about your result.
Job ads for community workers are holding steady. About 1,238 community worker jobs were advertised online in June 2026, up 1.4% on a year earlier. Over the last 12 months there were about 15,600 job ads, while 140 people were training in the qualification nationally (2025). Ads show the market. Enrolments show the pipeline. Neither is a job promise.
Australia's official shortage list rates community workers, disabilities services officers, family support workers, parole or probation officers, residential care officers and youth workers as not in shortage. The 2025 Occupation Shortage List rates Community Worker, Disabilities Services Officer, Family Support Worker, Parole or Probation Officer, Residential Care Officer and Youth Worker as not in shortage.
Community worker jobs are projected to grow. Jobs and Skills Australia projections put these occupations at 96,486 workers in May 2025, 102,315 by May 2030 (up 6%) and 107,955 by May 2035 (up 11.9%).
More people are choosing the Graduate Certificate in Client Assessment and Case Management every year. Across Australia, 105 people enrolled in 2024. In 2025 it was 140, up 33.3% in a year.
