Topic Overview:

This webinar made attendees think about what their  RTO and their team of VET practitioners are actually getting out of engaging with each other during validation events and sharing their expertise.
 
The VET sector is a fast-moving platform undergoing change.  This change is enabling RTOs to move further and further into a world that operates more successfully when embedding holistic quality and self-assured practices.  With this in mind, it is time to embrace the opportunity to turn our routine validation events into ones that serve us, inform us, support continuous improvement and turn the whole experience into one which is more meaningful for all involved.

By sharing and unpacking some fundamental ‘top tips’, this session represented a more inclusive and ‘best-practice’ approach to conducting assessment validation, that moved attendees above and beyond compliance requirements.

What was covered in the webinar:

• Redefining the purpose behind validating assessment
• Avoiding unnecessary over-assessment and documentation

• Trainers and Assessors
• RTO Managers
