This document provides information on unit costing in community care. It begins with learning outcomes, which include describing the differences between direct and indirect costs and the steps to develop unit costs. It then discusses why organizations need to understand unit costs, particularly with the introduction of individualized funding models. The document outlines the costing process, including defining different cost types. It includes activities for attendees to practice defining the service being costed and calculating a unit cost. Finally, it discusses using unit costs to consider strategic questions about price, quality and viability under different funding models like the NDIS.

This expert-led workshop explores the future of contract design, what it means for funding public services and th e legal and cultural implications for organisations like yours. Public service contracting is becoming more diverse in both size and structure. With large contracts being broken up and work being passed down supply chains in sub-contracts, you see a number of challenges arising.
If you are involved in contracting , our panel of senior national charity finance directors and civil servants will help you navigate some of the key difficulties, including modelling cash-flows in supply chains and managing the sharing of risk between providers.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

I am the Managing Director of Carrie Hayter Consulting that works will all actors in the social care system to put people at the centre of their supports and funding.
We do this through our research, evaluation, education programs, public speaking and writing.
There are significant changes happening in the policy landscape in age care and disability policy in Australia as part of the agenda of personalisation. The assumptions that underpin these shifts include the changing role of people who use public services shifting from being ‘passive’ clients to ‘active consumers’. It is assumed that people who use disability services or aged care services will become active ‘consumers’. Rather than being passive clients relying on professionals for support and advice people are assumed to be active engaged ‘consumers’ who will make informed choices about their care.
Flowing from this assumption is the need for changes in the how agencies are funded from block funded to individually funded. It is assumed that individualised funding will provide more mechanisms for service users to get their needs met. We are seeing this funding system emerging as part of the launch sites of the NDIS as well as the emergence of the concept of ‘consumer directed care’ in packaged care in aged care in Australia.
As part of this changing landscape there are significant challenges for small, medium to large organisations in being able to thrive and survive in this changing landscape? As well as considering the structures that are in place to enable the participation and engagement of service users in your service.
Underpinning these changes are competing tensions between human rights of people on the one hand and economic positioning and arguments about the costs of ageing.
