COTA Tasmania's story

Council on the Ageing (COTA) Tasmania has been a member of the 26Ten Network since 2017.

What it means to be part of the 26Ten Network

“Council on the Ageing (COTA) Tasmania is all too aware of the importance of communicating clearly in our work with people across the state. Being part of this network assists to keep us connected to likeminded organisations and to continue in our learning journey as a team, ensuring we offer accessible and inclusive information and support through our programs and services to older Tasmanians.”

Why is 26Ten important to your organisation

“26Ten helps us to reflect and consider the different audiences we have and the best way to clearly speak to each audience. We share the same values as 26Ten and as an organisation we are committed to being part of the solution to our state’s literacy challenges, as well as make our workplace supportive for all.”

The benefits and joy for all of training in the workplace

"It changes their world. It takes people from 'oh this is as good as it gets,' to 'well maybe I could do something more than this.' And that's magic. So if your organisation has any possibility of getting a 26Ten project, run with it."

Kelly's story as an adult learner in George Town

"My family are so proud of me for working so hard and have seen a difference in me. So my advice is to go for what you love and be happy. Don't try and do it on your own, always ask for help even if you think you can't do it, keep trying."
