Investing in capability
Our people are proud specialists. We value our craft so we will invest in your learning. We want our people to continuously learn, discover, grow and develop themselves throughout their career to succeed in a changing world.
Technical drafting expertise
We take pride in the high quality of the professional work done by our drafters and are committed to seeing that high standard maintained. Technical drafting expertise is taught to new assistant drafters through a pairing system, where they are paired with, and learn from, an experienced senior drafter. New assistant drafters may also be supported to undertake a pre-admission legal practice course.
Technical publications expertise
The Publications Training Program is a formal program based on contemporary best practice, designed to introduce new Publications employees to technical aspects of our work in a scaffolded way that builds on the knowledge they acquire moving through its various stages.
Technical corporate services expertise
While most members of our corporate services group bring years of expertise when they join OPC, and many bring formal qualifications, we encourage continued professional growth. Support is available for ongoing technical development through short courses and for formal qualifications.
Supervisor skills development
OPC supervisors have access to a comprehensive training program relevant at all stages of their career, whether they are new supervisors, experienced supervisors looking to keep their skills fresh, or supervisors looking to work intensively at their "growing edge’’.
Targeted development
Employees are encouraged to identify and actively pursue opportunities to develop for current or future roles. Our focus extends beyond technical expertise, to broader people skills and capabilities. Studies Assistance is available for formal programs of study leading to a qualification.
