Whether you need information about our super funds, help with a process or training, we’re here to help. We’ll tailor solutions to meet your needs and partner with you to support your employees through their super journeys.
Employer servicesWho do we train?
Our employer training sessions are available to:
- Payroll and Recruitment teams
- HR Practitioners
- Rehabilitation Case Managers and Workplace Health and Safety Representatives
- Managers and Senior Executives.
What's on offer?
We’ll work with you to provide sessions that best suit your teams’ needs and knowledge levels. Our sessions usually take the form of:Formal training | Sessions on specific topics | Q&A sessions | One-on-one consultations |
---|---|---|---|
If you haven’t had training for a while, or ever, we recommend starting with formal training. Topics are based on your teams’ roles. This will give your team a solid foundation of super knowledge to build on. |
Once you’ve done formal training, we can focus on specific topics that you need more knowledge about. Some complex subjects, like shift allowance, need these separate sessions too. |
If you’ve done formal training, Q&A sessions will keep you confident with your super knowledge and give you the space to ask questions about areas you’re unsure of. If you’re experienced in your role, Q&A sessions can help you keep updated on changes to legislation and processes. |
We can work with you one-on-one to tackle those more hands-on tasks. For payroll teams, we can work together on AWOTE calculations and PIP and/or PAP payments. For case managers, we can have a case conference to talk about a sick or injured employee you’re helping. |
What topics do we cover?
Payroll and recruitment topics
- Introduction to super for government employees
- Scheme eligibility and recommencement rules
- Super contributions
- Casual members and part-timers
- Leave
- Salary for super and salary reviews
- Shift allowance
- Invalidity payments (pre-assessment payments and partial invalidity pensions).
HR topics
We offer a high level overview of super that is designed for HR Practitioners or similar. This cover the key moments in your employee’s journey from recruitment to retirement, and shows how we work together to support them. Topics covered include onboarding, growing super benefits, ceasing employment and life beyond employment.
Invalidity and insurance topics
- Invalidity retirement for CSS, PSS and PSSap members
- CSS and PSS pre-assessment payments
- CSS and PSS partial invalidity pensions
- PSSap insurance – lifePLUS cover
These topics dive into what invalidity and insurance options are available, their eligibility requirements, how to submit an application and what information you need to support that application. We also briefly touch on how the payments work.
If you are only after a brief session about invalidity and insurance for our CSS, PSS and PSSap members, talk to us about our 60 minute overview session. We recommend these sessions for HR teams and line managers that need a high level understanding about invalidity and insurance benefits.
How do we provide our training?
We can provide training face-to-face or online. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, all face-to-face training must meet our COVID safe requirements at this time.
How long does training take?
The training sessions vary in length depending on what your team needs and whether the session will be face-to-face or online. We’ll let you know how long training will be once we’ve picked the session style and topics that best suit your team. Here are some examples to give you an idea:
Face-to-face (depending on your location, we may be able to split topics over multiple sessions) |
Online (we recommend shorter sessions) |

That all depends on where you’re located.
Canberra
We’re in Canberra too. If you’re Canberra based, we’re happy to train in your office or ours.
Other major cities
Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, we haven’t given ourselves a strict interstate travel schedule for 2022. We’re instead organising interstate travel whenever it’s needed. So if you’re in a major city other than Canberra, get in touch so we can chat about coming to you.
