Peer Support Program – Supporting Assessors
IAAS Quality Managment
In partnership with SAPMEA, ReturnToWorkSA provides the Peer Support Program to help assessors deliver assessments that are consistent, objective, and fair.
The Peer Support Program connects assessors with experienced Peer Support Assessors who provide practical guidance and feedback throughout the WPI assessment process. Support is tailored to each assessor’s individual needs and may include case discussions, report reviews, and advice on complex or challenging assessments.
