What Auditors are Looking for in Completed Student Files

21 August 2020
ONLINE

Our students are at the core of the Vocational Education and Training ecosystem. Student administration and specifically the contents of the student files are critical to the success of the student, the teacher and the Registered Training Organisation.

This session will look at a student file through the auditor's lens. What are the must-have documents to meet your regulatory obligations, what are the maybe documents and the nice to have documents in a student file? What is a student administration file verses a student assessment file? Which approach and tools are best to manage student files and how do we encourage a culture of inclusivity where everyone is responsible for student files.

How long do we need to keep student files, and what is the best approach for preparing our student files for an internal audit and an external audit. What are the differences in audits and preparation, and how do you ensure ongoing compliance and quality processes.

 You will leave this session with a clear understanding of the requirements and regulatory obligations for student files, including advice and tools on how to prepare a student file as a best practice to support the student experience and best practice outcomes.
