What is AusIDentities?
AusIDentities has been introduced to a growing number of business organisations, along with educational bodies such as TAFE and universities, and more than 350 schools across Australia.

What is it all about?
Our vision is simple: to share this information with as many people as possible - especially among our young people, where 1 in 3 high-school students are predicted to suffer mental health issues - by offering a deeper understanding of the innate talents and core strengths that different people bring to the world.

Frequently Asked Questions
AusIDentities draws on the same foundations as MBTI but translates them into four memorable Australian animal types. Teams that have used MBTI, DISC or HBDI find the transition simple — the same insights, without the complex theory, so they actually stick.
Yes. The model draws on the work of Dr David Keirsey and more than 30 years of personality research, and has been applied in schools across Australia since 2005.
After typing more than 20,000 teachers over around 20 years, we've found nearly 70% are “Wombats” — a pattern that helps schools understand their own culture and communication styles.
In our work typing around 30,000 students, roughly 90% of at-risk students are “Kangaroos”. Recognising this early helps educators connect with and better support these students.
AusIDentities is used and endorsed by organisations including QASSP, QELI, Catholic Education, the University of the Sunshine Coast, TAFE, Scripture Union and the Salvation Army, among others.
