Behaviour Support Practitioner

I’m seeking a Speech Pathologist and/or Behaviour Support Practitioner with experience in AAC (Augmentative & Alternative Communication) for a short-term, fixed-scope contract.

This role involves consultative input into the design of a small AAC card set intended for family and homeschooling contexts. The focus is on accessibility, respectful language, and neurodiversity-affirming practice. This is not a clinical role and does not involve assessment, therapy, or service delivery.

Scope of work (consultative)

• Advising on core and fringe vocabulary selection

• Providing guidance on structure, layout, and usability

• Supporting ethical, strengths-based communication approaches

• Reviewing content for accessibility and family-friendly use

This is a collaborative advisory role, not full AAC system development.

Contract details

• Contract type: Short-term / project-based

• Budget: Fixed honorarium of approximately $500

• Time commitment: Limited and negotiable, aligned with scope

• Location: Remote / Australia-based preferred

About you

• Qualified Speech Pathologist or Behaviour Support Practitioner

• Experience with AAC or visual communication supports

• Familiar with neurodivergent-affirming frameworks

• Comfortable working in a non-clinical, consultative capacity

• Values collaboration, clarity, and ethical design

Additional notes

This role is designed as a professional consultation, not employment or ongoing work. Scope and expectations will be discussed upfront to ensure clarity and fairness for both parties.
