What information should a provider give students prior to enrolment about work-based training components of a course?
A Standard 2.1 d. requires that providers give students details of any arrangements with another registered provider, person or business to provide the course or part of the course. If a course includes work-based training (part of the course provided by another person or business) providers must make students aware of the details of this arrangement. Work-based training placements may be arranged by the registered provider, or by the student. Consequently, details of arrangements for work-based training are not always available prior to enrolment. So, if offering work-based training as part of a course, providers should make it clear to students that work placements are likely to be conducted off-campus (with another person or business) and that the placement/s must be undertaken in the same state or territory as the course.
