The vision of the department is for a justice and community safety system that works together to build a safer, fairer and stronger Victoria.

Family Violence Elearning Module

The department was looking for an elearning development company to support the development of a 20-minute Introduction to Family Violence elearning module that could be deployed via their Learning Management System to raise awareness of family violence with all staff.

Developing the Introduction to Family Violence elearning module

Lucid Virtual Solutions developed an introduction learning module to raise awareness on the dynamics, risk indicator and impacts of family violence. This module included a live video filming session where we interviewed family violence victim-survivors.

To complement the interview videos, we blended infographics and similar illustrations to tie the module together with a consistent theme.

The Lucid team have worked with many state government departments to deliver similar learning solutions.

Below are samples of the delivered module:

The 1 July 2026 changes are now live for newly regulated sectors, including legal, accounting, real estate, conveyancing, precious metals and stones, and certain virtual asset services. For existing reporting entities, a number of reforms commenced earlier, on 31 March 2026, with transitional rules applying in some areas.

At Lucid, we’ve seen many organisations prepare for these changes by updating their existing AML/CTF courses rather than rebuilding them from scratch. Some have added new scenarios. Some have updated assessment questions. Others have refreshed facilitator guides, job aids, LMS records or role-specific modules.

But not every organisation has completed that work yet.

If your AML/CTF course was built before the reforms, it may still be mostly right. But there may now be gaps. It may refer to old processes, old terminology, old customer due diligence steps, or examples that no longer reflect the current regulatory environment.

This article is not an introduction to AML/CTF…. It’s an informal guide for organisations that already have training in place and now need to review what should be amended, added or refreshed following the July 2026 changes.

Promoting Safety in Residential Care has been recognised as a finalist in the 2026 AITD Excellence Awards in the category of Best Capability Building Program.

The recognition acknowledges a significant program of work led by the Centre for Excellence in Child and Family Welfare, funded by the Department of Families, Fairness and Housing, and shaped with input from residential care providers, Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisations, frontline workers, subject matter experts and sector partners.

Lucid contributed to the program through the design and development of the digital learning component, supporting the broader capability pathway with a practical and accessible elearning foundation.

The AITD finalist recognition is an important milestone, but the real story is the collective work behind the program: a sector-wide effort to build safer, more consistent and more trauma-informed responses to occupational violence and aggression in residential care.
