Vocational Education and Training (VET)

On 1 July, 2007, Australian Quality Training Framework (AQTF) 2007 Essential Standards for Registration (the Essential Standards) replaced the AQTF 2005 Standards for Registered Training Organisations. The Essential Standards aim to improve the quality of training and assessment in the VET sector. Changes include reducing the regulatory burden, streamlining and standardising processes for national consistency, ensuring stakeholder confidence in quality skills outcomes and ensuring continuous improvement of training and assessment. The VRQA has responsibility for implementation of the AQTF 2007 Essential Standards for Registration, in Victoria.

As a Victorian RTO, your organisation can deliver training outside Victoria without a further recognition process or payment of additional fees, through National Recognition arrangements.

Under National Recognition, each State and Territory has agreed to recognise the decisions of all other States and Territories in registering training organisations (including the imposition of any conditions or sanctions with respect to registration).
