The end result was often that programs were not able to correctly target the necessary skills required for individuals to improve their cultural competence. Often, cultural competence has also become confused with &#8216;cultural awareness&#8217;. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\">IPS programs in being based upon 10 years of research means that \u00a0the predictors of cultural competence have been empirically determined for the first time. This then means that our training packages\u00a0have been developed based upon incorporating these relevant\u00a0factors, but they are also able to be rigorously evaluated via the development of a number of cultural competency tests including the Aboriginal Mental Health Cultural Competency Profile and the General Cultural Competency Profile.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #ff9900; font-size: 12pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\"><strong>The ability to target and measure the improvement of cultural competencies separate IPS from all other cultural competency programs.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080; font-size: 12pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">IPS&#8217; cultural competency programs are as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #808080; font-size: 12pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Aboriginal Mental Health Cultural Competency Intervention Programs<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #808080; font-size: 12pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">General Cultural Competency Intervention Programs<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #808080; font-size: 12pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Cultural Audits of Organisations<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Are you seeking to improve the Cultural Competencies of your staff and organisation?
