About Hader Institute of Education Pty Ltd

We believe in a future where everyone feels included, connected, valued and belongs. We’re in business to empower people to help each other on their paths to discovery and transformation.

Connected online learning in Mental Health, Youth Work, Community Services and Alcohol & Other Drugs.

At Hader Institute of Education, we recognise that education is the pathway to opportunity. We are the leading online education and training provider to individuals wanting to pursue a career in Mental Health, Alcohol and other Drugs and Counselling. This is a responsibility we take seriously.

Mental and substance use disorder doesn’t just affect the individual, but also the wider community. As people who care deeply about our fellow humans, we show up in this education sector wholeheartedly, with a desire to create positive and lasting change.

Ours is a relatively new business. We knew that starting a new organisation at this time – came with a responsibility to look beyond “business-as-usual”. That’s why we are using our business to create the kind of positive change that society truly needs.

This goes directly to who we are at Hader and why we exist – we believe in a future where everyone feels included, connected, valued, and belongs.

This belief inspires our mission…through learning, community, and support, we’re here to empower people to help each other on their paths to discovery and transformation.

By focusing our efforts on supporting good mental health and wellbeing – through our people, learners, our industry, and the wider community – we help each other on our paths to self-discovery; together building a connected and inclusive future where we all belong.

Right now, we live in times of crisis, uncertainty and for many, self-doubt. But these times are also filled with great opportunities; to rise to the challenges we face and to demonstrate what human endeavour can achieve, especially when we work together.

This is the kind of stuff that dreams are made of. When we help people take control of their lives, we open the door to self-belief. The magic happens here. It’s where the impossible becomes possible and where people connect to the power of their dreams.

If ever there was a need for people to dream of a better, more connected, and inclusive future, now is that time. If this connects with you then come and join our community of fellow dreamers. ‍

Together, let’s make a difference, today.
