Our North Star

We believe that where you live should never determine what you become. Regional Australia is not a footnote in someone else's story, it is the backbone of this nation. The farmers, the tradespeople, the parents working two jobs in a town with one traffic light, they deserve access to the same quality of education, training, and support as anyone in the city. REACHAU was born from that belief. Not as a charity, and not as a tick-box. As a genuine commitment to closing the gap between postcode and possibility.

We honour the principles of those who taught us that business, when done with integrity, becomes a vehicle for human transformation, not just profit. Every course we deliver, every career pathway we open, every person we help find food or shelter or a job through our network, is a small act of that philosophy made real. We don't just train people. We remind them of what they're already capable of.

This is bigger than one program or one website. REACHAU is an ecosystem, connecting the first aid course in Esperance to the mental health workshop in Kalgoorlie to the job placement service in the Pilbara. Every door we open connects to another. Our mission is simple, and it is lifelong: reach every Australian who needs us, wherever they are, and help them take the next step.

Your Journey

Not a Course. A Career Journey.

We designed every program as a stepping stone, not a destination. Choose your journey below.

From Zero to Confidence in a Weekend

First aid training is more than a certificate, it's the moment you realise you have the power to save a life. We meet you at your level and build from there, with pathways that open doors in healthcare, childcare, mining, construction, and community services.

1

Start with CPR (HLTAID009)

A two-hour session that every Australian should have. Weekend-friendly, regionally delivered.

2

Upgrade to Full First Aid (HLTAID011)

Three-Four hours, or a full day session. Nationally recognised. The go-to requirement for most workplaces and industries.

3

Specialise — Remote & Advanced

HLTAID013 for remote/isolated work. HLTAID014 Advanced Resuscitation for health & care sectors.

4

Become a Community First Aid Champion

Train your team. Become a first aid officer. Create a safer community around you.

🏆 Where This Pathway Takes You

👷
Mining & Resources

HLTAID011 is mandatory on most mine sites. HLTAID013 for remote operations, open doors to high-paying FIFO roles.

🏫
Education & Childcare

HLTAID012 is the Education & Care standard. Essential for every person working with children.

🏥
Health & Community Services

HLTAID014 Advanced is the gateway to roles in aged care, disability, and community health.

🌾
Agriculture & Rural Work

Remote first aid is a career differentiator in a sector where the nearest hospital is 90 minutes away.

You Don't Have to Fix It. You Just Have to Show Up.

Mental resilience workshops build the confidence to recognise when someone needs help and know what to do about it. In regional Australia — where 1 in 3 people have no access to a psychologist, this is not a luxury. It's infrastructure.

1

Mental Health Awareness

Half-day workshop on recognising mental health challenges at work and in community.

2

Mental Health Awareness & First Aid Certification

HLTAID First Aid accreditation combined with Mental Health in the Workplace and Community, knowing what to do during, and after a crisis.

3

Workplace Wellbeing Program

Group facilitation for teams and organisations. Builds culture-level change, not just individual awareness.

4

Community Champion & Peer Support

Become a trained peer supporter in your community. The ripple effect of one trained person is immeasurable.

🏆 Where This Pathway Takes You

🏢
Workplace Wellbeing Roles

Growing demand in regional employers for workplace wellbeing officers and EAP coordinators.

🏘️
Community & Social Services

Mental resilience training is a useful for roles in community support, and workplace settings.

🎓
Education & Youth Work

Teachers, youth workers, and school officers who attend Mental Health in the Workplace or Community programs are among the most sought-after in the sector.

💼
Leadership & Management

Leaders with mental resilience training drive higher team retention, lower absenteeism, and stronger culture.

Your Next Step Is Closer Than You Think

Employment support in regional areas has historically meant a distant office and generic advice. REACHAU's employment pathway connects real training to real jobs in your region, with support at every step, not just at the start.

1

Skills & Goals Assessment

Understand where you are and map the shortest, clearest path to where you want to be.

2

Targeted Certifications

The right qualifications for your target industry — first aid, safety, care, leadership, and more.

3

Resume, Profile & Interview Prep

A resume that reflects your real skills. Confidence for the interview. Practical, not generic.

4

Employer & Network Connection

Introductions to regional employers, job boards, and community networks who prioritise local talent.

🏆 Industries With High Regional Demand

⛏️
Mining & Resources

WA's resources sector is one of the highest-paying in the world. The right certs open the door.

🌾
Agriculture & Agribusiness

Skilled agricultural workers are in shortage across regional Australia. Training builds mobility.

🏥
Health & Aged Care

Regional health services are desperately short of qualified workers. Entry pathways are wide open.

🔧
Construction & Trades

Safety certifications (first aid, WHS) are mandatory — and make every tradie more employable.

🌉 The Bridge Strategy

From Surviving
to Thriving.

The Find Local Help Now app is where many people's journey with REACHAU begins, at the moment they need help most. Whether that's finding a meal, emergency shelter, or urgent healthcare, the app opens the door. REACHAU is what walks them through it.

We believe the most ethical thing we can do for someone in need is first meet that need, and then, only when they're ready, show them what becomes possible next. Our bridge is built on trust, not transactions.

📍

Someone opens Find Local Help Now

Looking for food, shelter, health support, or emergency assistance in their area.

🤝

We connect them to immediate help

Four quadrants: food, health, shelter, and job help, no data harvesting, just real referrals.

💼

Job Help connects to REACHAU

The Job Help quadrant surfaces REACHAU employment pathways and training options contextually.

🚀

A new chapter begins

On their terms, at their pace. A first aid course. A career assessment. A next step, chosen freely.

Our Foundations

Built on Wisdom.
Driven by Purpose.

REACHAU carries forward a set of principles forged in the study of business, psychology, and human potential, in the tradition of teachers like the late Kerwin Rae, who taught a generation of Australians that the most powerful business is one that transforms lives. Not as a memorial, but as a living practice: his wisdom breathes in how we show up for every student, every community member, every person who walks through our door.

We believe profit and purpose are not opposing forces. We believe that when you help a single mother in a regional town get her first aid certificate, you are changing the trajectory of a family. We believe the measure of a good business is what it leaves behind in the communities it touches.

💡

Education as Transformation

We don't just teach skills. We shift how people see what's possible for themselves.

🤲

Integrity Over Transaction

Every referral, every course, every partnership is only offered if it genuinely serves the person in front of us.

🌱

Community as Infrastructure

Educated, empowered communities are more resilient, healthier, and more economically strong. This is infrastructure work.

🔁

Generational Thinking

We measure success not in this quarter but in who our students become, and who they go on to help.

We Don't Wait for
You to Come to Us.

Most training providers are built for the city and occasionally visit the country. REACHAU is built the other way around. Our default is regional. Our trainers travel. Our scheduling accounts for harvest seasons, shearing blocks, and school drop-offs.

We have delivered training in sheds, community halls, mine site lunchrooms, and school gymnasiums. If your community needs it, we find a way to be there.

What People Say

From the People We Serve

★★★★★

"I've been meaning to get my first aid cert for three years, but every course was either in the city or on a weekday I couldn't get off work. REACHAU came to Esperance on a Saturday and I finally did it. Two weeks later I used it at a football game."

MR
Michael R.
Esperance, WA
★★★★★

"Our mine site needed 24 staff certified in remote first aid within 6 weeks. The team organised on-site delivery, handled all the paperwork, and every single one of our guys passed. Outstanding."

JK
Jason K.
Site Safety Manager, Pilbara
★★★★★

"I found the app when I was really struggling. It got me connected to food and then to a mental health service I didn't even know existed. Three months later I was enrolled in a course. It really does work."
