Notes:	Catalogue number OFW-269 This project identifies units of competency in the work of practitioners who provide interventions for people who use domestic violence, and develops materials to support their implementation. Methodologies involved: national consultations with training bodies; data from focus groups, critical incident interviews, consultations and a development workshop. Final draft competency units have been developed for practitioners working with heterosexual men who use domestic violence and abuse. Key findings and recommendations look at issues relating to practitioners’ work, lack of services for specific groups, relationship between the field and the vocational education and training sector, training and assessment of worker competence, and parity between practitioners working with women and those working for men. Competency units include maintaining focus on the safety of women and children through to promoting accountability by men who have used violence and abuse.
