24 August 2020 : The What, Why, Who, How and When of Reasonable Adjustment

Presented by:   Carol Hunter

What does reasonable adjustment mean in practice? The Standards for RTOS 2015 and the AQTF are almost silent on reasonable adjustment. Yet, we see the phrase used in User Guides and auditors may ask about reasonable adjustment.

You may have statements about it in Training and Assessment Strategies and assessment materials. But have you really thought about those statements and what they mean?

Do you 'do what you say you will do'? CAN you 'do what you say' to ensure that for the learners enrolled, the processes within the RTO are meeting the intent of the standards, the legislation and outcomes of the training product?

This session will have a compliance focus rather than an equity focus.

  • What is reasonable adjustment?
  • Why is it required?
  • Who qualifies for reasonable adjustment?
  • How do I offer it and what options do I have?
  • When is reasonable adjustment not an option?

NB. Can't make the session?
We send out all electronic resources to registrants within 48 hours of the session closure. All Velg Training Webinars are scheduled in AEST (QLD time) - please check your timezone before logging onto the online training session.
