Online learning

We provide education and training to help you understand your obligations and provide safe, high-quality care.

We’ve created learning content to help aged care workers and providers understand their obligations and supply safe, high-quality care.

Our learning content is available on the Aged Care Learning Information Solution (Alis) website. 

To use Alis, you need to register online.

You can use Alis on any internet-connected PC, laptop, tablet or phone.

It's not compulsory. Aged care workers and providers don’t have to use Alis.

Costs for Australian Government aged care workers

Alis is free for Australian Government-funded aged care providers and their employees.

Costs for private aged care workers

Private aged care providers need to pay to use Alis. The cost depends on how many users the provider has.

Non-aged care workers

People who don’t work for an aged care provider can also use Alis. The same fees apply as for private aged care workers.

Cost examples

For 1 year:

• 25 users will cost $750 ($30 per licence)
• 40 users will cost $1,110 ($30 for the first 25 users and $24 for the following 15 users)
• 100 users will cost $2,300 ($30 for the first 25 users, $24 for the following 25 users, and $19 for the remaining 50 users).

How to register

Aged care providers can register their staff, or workers can register themselves. Workers who self-register need to link their accounts to their employers.

2. Click 'Sign up'.
