    Description: The Australian Government is pleased to announce a joint initiative with Victoria University to deliver a series of online training modules in 2024 to support practitioners and clinicians in Australia and NZ involved in the assessment and management of individuals radicalising to violent extremism. This specialised set of online training resources is aimed at clinicians within a forensic or health setting who are working with neurodiverse clients engaged in violent extremism. It will also be of benefit to police working within counter terrorism (CT), countering violent extremism (CVE) or Fixated Threat Assessment Centre (FTAC) environments. This is the first of four modules that form part of this online training resource. The four training modules incorporate all aspects of the ‘Framework for the Assessment of Risk and Protection in Offenders on the Autistic Spectrum’ (FARAS), presented by the author of the FARAS, Professor Zainab Al-Attar. Each of the four modules will focus on different aspects of the FARAS and include information relevant to co-morbidity issues, specific issues in adolescence, and CVE intervention strategies relevant to each characteristic of ASD. After completing the training, practitioners will have a greater understanding of how violent extremism interplays with different characteristics of autism, as well as practical strategies for working with neurodiverse clients engaged in violent extremism. This training is designed to build workforce capacity to assist in the assessment and intervention strategies for those working with neurodiverse clients engaged in violent extremism. Registration Terms: I agree to not to share the link with any person who has not already registered for the webinar. Access to this course is restricted.

    Description: This self-paced training course is for people who want to include Melitz features in GTAP computations. It demonstrates how to integrate elements of modern trade theory, particularly the Melitz model with firm-level product differentiation, along with the traditional national differentiated products model of Armington and monopolistic competition models of Krugman and others, into the GTAP model. The course will be delivered as a sequence of lectures. An illustrative example is worked through in detail simulating the effects of a 10% tariff on wearing apparel comparing Armington and Melitz results. The Melitz theory is implemented by adding code to the existing GTAP model. Participants will gain a theoretical and practical understanding of how to implement elements of modern trade theory in GTAP. For Australian-based participants the price includes GST. Registration and payment gives you access to the course material for 90 days from the date of registration.
