• The_Compass_Institute_Inc abstract "The Compass Institute Inc. is a unique charity organisation dedicated to providing real futures for young Queenslanders with a disability. It is Australia's first accredited Disability Service based on the principles of Japanese Budo. Compass is a registered member of the National Disability Services, providing post-school services for young people with an intellectual disability. Compass is a leading edge service for people with an intellectual or physical disability in Australia.Compass has been operating as a not for profit organisation since the early 90's. It began in 1991 as 'The Aikido Institute' providing alternative education and intervention programmes to school aged children. Between 1992 and 2006 over 7000 children participated in the intervention programmes. In 2003 The Aikido Institute became The Compass Institute Inc., and began providing post-school education, training and vocational opportunities to young people with intellectual and/or physical disabilities.While policy changes over the last 50 years has led to positive changes in the lives of people with disabilities, full social inclusion has not yet been reached. Support and integrated employment programs are still lacking. There is a need within the disability service sector for more positive social relationships, independence and meaningful activity. Compass provides a developmental and transition focused service. Programs are based wholly around learning for life, catering to individual learning goals and providing skill development, independent living skills and vocational skills, rather than focusing on amusement and respite.In 2013 Compass is a registered charity employing 30 specialist staff and supporting over 70 young people with intellectual and/or physical disabilities through 6 centres from Gladstone to Gympie. One of these centres is a working farm, which provides opportunities for around 20 young people to gain access to further training in animal husbandry, horticulture, nursery work, and property maintenance.In 2014, The Compass Institute was awarded at the Sunshine Coast Business Awards. The first part of the process was based on an exhaustive written application where the Institute made it as a finalist in the category – Knowledge Industries and Professional Services. This category was one of the largest with 16 other finalists. Stage two was a 45-minute interview with 3 members of the judging panel. Winning this award signifies the hard work of the Institute as well as being strong recognition of its work within the community.In 2015, Compass was once again nominated for 4 prestigious awards at the Sunshine Coast Business Awards and was very grateful to be the receiver of 3 of these awards. The Compass Institute was awarded in the categories of Leadership, Social Responsibility and Not For Profit.\" It’s a humbling experience just to be nominated for these prestigious awards and of course becoming one of the finalists was really exciting for the whole team at Compass. Winning one award would have to be considered a real honor, so taking out three awards in the same year was just amazing. It’s a testament to the pride, passion and dedication of every staff member. \" - David Dangerfield, CEO.".
