Focus Week: Real-World Ready: Flexible and Contextualised Workplace Practical Assessments

Recorded on 27/07/2023 and forming part of Velg Training's Focus Week on Assessment Tools and Practices, explore innovative strategies for creating observation assessment instruments that accommodate diverse contexts and environments. Empower your VET assessments to provide real-world readiness!

Outcome Standards

The Outcome Standards set out the key elements of quality training and assessment, which organisations must demonstrate to be registered, and maintain registration, as a training provider.

AQTF Framework - Victoria only

Before the introduction of the Standards for RTOs 2015, the AQTF outlined compliance requirements for the registration and operation of RTOs in Australia. Now, the AQTF (in conjunction with the ‘2016 VRQA Guidelines for VET Providers’) is only used by RTOs under the jurisdiction of the VRQA.
