Who can deliver and assess using Training Packages?
Training and assessment using Training Packages that leads to nationally recognised qualifications must be conducted by a Registered Training Organisation (RTO). The RTO must have the qualifications or specific units of competency on its scope of registration, or work in partnership with another RTO as specified in the AQTF 2007 Essential Standards for Registration. The AQTF 2007 is critical to the registration and operation of RTOs and can be found on the Training.com website at http://www.training.com.au/documents/aqtf2k7_usr-guide-ess-std_final2.pdf. To provide training and assessment in VET, trainers and assessors must meet the competency requirements spelt out in Element 1.4 of the AQTF 2007 Essential Standards for Registration and Appendix 2 of the AQTF 2007 Users’ Guide to the Essential Standards for Registration. These documents are available here In addition, trainers and assessors must have access to a current copy of the Training Package that is being delivered and assessed.
