PART 2 – Training and assessment

         Standard 1. The RTO's training and assessment strategies and practices are responsive to industry and learner needs and meet the requirements of training packages and VET accredited courses
Context:

Learners, employers and industry must have confidence in the integrity, currency and value of certification documents issued by RTOs, through high quality training and assessment practices that:

 meet the requirements of training packages and VET accredited courses;
 is responsive to industry and learner needs; and
 is delivered by appropriately qualified trainers and assessors with the right support services, facilities and equipment.

The amount of training will vary depending on the existing skills and knowledge of the learner, the mode of delivery and include any work placement arrangements.

RTOs must use a risk‑based approach to developing the plan considering risk indicators such as the potential safety concerns to clients from an assessment outcome that is not valid, the mode of delivery, changes to training packages and/or licensing requirements.

1.2. For the purposes of Clause 1.1, the RTO determines the amount of training they provide to each learner with regard to:
        a) the existing skills, knowledge and the experience of the learner;
        b) the mode of delivery; and
        c) where a full qualification is not being delivered, the number of units and/or modules being delivered as a proportion of the full qualification.
