Have your say on quality reforms

The Federal Government has proposed a number of Skills Reform.

A series of online workshops have been released to help you have your say on quality reforms in the vocational education and training (VET) sector.

These workshops are designed for anyone who wants to provide feedback in relation to RTO practices and factors that support high-quality training delivery.

The quality reforms workshops seek your input to explore:

• The features of high-quality training delivery and providers

• The effectiveness of the current Standards for RTOs

• How to support the VET workforce for high-quality delivery.

They are interested in hearing your views on how we can support high-quality training delivery beyond compliance with minimum requirements and foster a shared understanding of quality across the sector. Find out more at www.skillsreform.gov.au.

Please note: the FFTITC team will be attending these as well so would be interested in your input and opinions. Please

give us a call on 9361 2800 to discuss.
