Training and Accreditation Council (TAC)

The Training Accreditation Council (TAC) is the body responsible for regulating RTOs in Western Australia.

Training Packages

Designed to be industry and sector skills specific, Training Packages are an integrated set of nationally endorsed Units of Competency, AQF qualifications and assessment guidelines that outline the expected outcomes of training.

Assessment - Standards 1.3, 1.4 and 1.5

Standards 1.3, 1.4 and 1.5 relate to the focus area of assessment.

Other Organisations

Within the VET sector there are a number of peak industry bodies that exist to provide advice, support and PD opportunities to VET practitioners.

Trainer and Assessor Requirements

Delivery of quality vocational training relies on having properly qualified educators with relevant experience. Specific requirements for trainers and assessors are mandated by the Standards.

Transition of training products

There are certain RTO activities that must be completed in set timeframes when a training product is superseded, removed or deleted from the national VET register.

Trainer and assessor competencies - Standards 3.2 and 3.3

Standards 3.2 and 3.3 relates to the focus area of trainer and assessor competencies.

Feedback, complaints and appeals - Standards 2.7 and 2.8

Skill Sets and Microcredentials

Skill Sets are a single Unit of Competency or combinations of Units of Competency from an endorsed Training Package, which link to a licensing or regulatory requirement, or a defined industry need or job role. Micro-credentials are small, certification-style courses that focus on a particular area of study to hone proficiency over the shortest possible time.

Delivery of Training and Engaging Learners

Effective training engagement techniques are critical to ensure training is relevant to a range of diverse students, accommodating varied learning styles, to help them progress through their program.

Standards at a Glance

Our member-only Standards at a Glance resource provides quick links to each component of the Standards.

Training Package Development

When Training Packages are developed and/or maintained, various organisations are involved in the process to ensure occupational skills are delivered to the particular standards required by specific industries.
