20 April 2020 : Stress less about PQS!

Presented by:   Alicia Holker & Katya Holker

Are you PQS audit ready?

The Department of Employment, Small Business and Training (DESBT) undertakes compliance audits against the departmental funding programs outlined in the Annual VET Investment Plan, to determine if a pre-qualified supplier (PQS) is satisfactorily addressing the requirements of its PQS agreement.

Join us as we understand what should be taken into consideration when planning and preparing for a PQS audit. Developed to provide specific details and guidance to PQS’s on the level of supporting documentation as required by the Certificate 3 Guarantee and the Higher-Level Skills programs, this webinar will ensure you document the appropriate types of audit evidence necessary to assist in demonstrating compliance.

 When implemented correctly, the audit evidence requirements will help your organisation work more effectively allowing you to stress less about PQS audits!

 Explore with Alicia & Katya this April:

  • Overview of DESBT’s new audit process
  • Planning and preparing for DESBT audit
  • Key focus areas including:
    • Administration
    • Eligibility
