Key ‘Hot Spots’ - Training product
An ‘offering’ that the RTO makes to its clients
Do I need a TAS for each different
MODE of delivery?
Key ‘Hot Spots’ - Mode of delivery
How different would a TAS be if you were
offering SIT20316 Certificate II in Hospitality
through:
• Workplace training;
• Face-to-face in your own facility;
• On-line with work placement?
What’s the difference between ‘Volume of Learning’
and ‘Amount of Training’?
Key ‘Hot Spots’ - Duration and Scheduling
Question asked of ASQA:
“What comprises ‘Amount of Training’? E.g. can
Amount of Training include face-to-face, online
learning, time spent on assessment and so on?
What’s the difference between ‘Volume of Learning’
and ‘Amount of Training’?
Key ‘Hot Spots’ - Duration and Scheduling
ASQAs response to the question:
“The amount of training provided by your RTO relates primarily to
formal teaching and learning activities such as face-to-face classes,
online lectures or tutorials and workplace learning. It does not
include research or assessment activities.
The ’Amount of Training’ provided by an RTO is part of the overall
‘Volume of Learning’ as defined by the Australian Qualifications
Framework (AQF). You must consider the ‘Volume of Learning’
when determining the amount of training your RTO will provide.
You must be able to provide a rationale for any significant variation.”
Amount of Training
Key ‘Hot Spots’ - Duration and Scheduling
Example: SIT20316 Certificate II in Hospitality
How do you arrive at 600 hours including assessment?
Calculation
• 38 weeks x 6 (hours per week) x 2 (years)
= 456 hours including assessment and
research time.
Key ‘Hot Spots’ - Duration and Scheduling
• What other activities can contribute time
associated with the ‘Volume of Learning’?
Main issue – incongruency between the TAS
and what actually happens in practice, e.g.
Key ‘Hot Spots’ - Assessment resources, methods and timing
• Methods of assessment – no longer using
Role-plays
• Change in resources – new staff bring new
materials!
• Timing of assessment – now being
clustered to reflect industry activities
Main issue – detail not comprehensive
enough to indicate the resources meet the
requirements of the training package
Key ‘Hot Spots’ - Physical resources
• Reference the units of competency
• Create ‘asset registers’
• Ensure any off-site resources are adequate and approval received
Training and Assessment Strategy
It’s cold and it’s dark in here, I’d much prefer to be where the action is!
