Our enduring purpose is to increase equity and drive positive and high-quality health outcomes in the community.
Our vision is to design and deliver industry-leading, accredited practical skills-based learning courses for the primary health workforce. We focus on building workforce capability and supporting healthcare professionals to expand their scope of practice and build careers while delivering quality patient care and outcomes.
We estimate that close to fifty percent of our client's work is partnering with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Community Controlled Health Organisations (ACCHOs), State and Commonwealth agencies, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Peak bodies and private organisations to create positive learning outcomes for Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander Health Practitioners and Workers cooperatively supporting improved health outcomes for Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander Peoples.
We work with clients with whom we share a common intent for good.
We are driven by our values of Respect, Inclusion, Excellence, Passion, Support and Personality and we demonstrate our values through the ways we treat each other, create a safe space, and listen and learn.
We treat everyone with respect and dignity. We’re thoughtful and considerate in our interactions with others. We take time to extend common courtesies – we say thank you, a lot. And we make a point of letting our students know how much we respect them for taking ‘time out’ to learn and do new things.
We know that to be truly excellent at something, you must surpass ordinary standards, so we aim to constantly raise the bar on what defines quality skills education in healthcare. As a team, we commit to doing our best work each day and wherever possible, to avoid ho-hum.
We show pride, enthusiasm and dedication in all that we do. We’re ambitious in our goals and motivated to find new and different ways to meet the needs of those who train with us. We enjoy what we do, and it shows.
We measure our success by our students’ success. We create positive learning experiences and actively support our students to learn and achieve new things. We share our students’ hopes and goals and believe in engaging, empowering and enabling them throughout their journey with us.
We value the individual and the opportunity to put our own ‘stamp on things’. We want our personality to shine through when we interact with students and stakeholders – whether that’s by email, on the phone or in person. We want our customers to see our human side and to feel connected to us as people – not just as a business.
We bring together diverse perspectives, life experiences, backgrounds and currency in the healthcare industry.
We are trusted by a range of industry leaders in Federal Health, Jurisdictional Health, Primary Healthcare Networks, Community Controlled Health Organisations and Industry Peak Bodies and private organisations to develop and deliver meaningful outcomes that impact practice and impact communities
I am Kath, co-owner and General Manager at Benchmarque Group. Big sister to Drew and so we all know what that means!!
I come from a background in capability, learning and organisational development so love working with people, in projects, learning design and behavioural learning that helps shape human experience in healthcare and create workplaces that are patient-centred and inclusive.
Outside of work, you’ll find me at a music gig, festival, game of soccer or with family and friends.
I am Drew, the founder, co-owner and CEO of Benchmarque Group. I am an only child and have no idea what Kath is talking about.
When I started Benchmarque Group back in 2007, the vision was always to create a business that delivered the best possible outcomes for our students. All these years later, I still absolutely love working with our clients to build courses from scratch that deliver the skills and knowledge to change behaviour.
Outside of work, I love hanging out with my kids and family and enjoy the odd adventurous holiday and a stupid haircut.
