This webinar forms part of our VET Workforce Week hosted by Velg Training and MRWED.  

About this webinar

Standard 3.1 of the revised standards for RTOs is focused on the effective management of the VET workforce to ensure appropriate staffing to deliver its services. 

This represents an important safeguard for the industry as it requires RTOs to suitably prepare trainers, assessors and other staff for the delivery of the services it offers. 

This includes facilitating access to continuing professional development opportunities to enable all staff in the organisation to effectively perform their role. 

This session examines what relevant, meaningful and appropriate professional development could look like for different VET workforce roles and will discuss how this PD could be effectively tracked and evidenced at audit. It will also offer ideas on how to create robust options to extend the capacity of the workers in the sector, including an exploration of the convergence between formal and informal PD opportunities. 

Finally, to support implementation, case studies will be provided that highlight how RTOs could meet their professional development responsibilities whilst enhancing the capabilities of the team and ultimately, the experience for learners.

Key topics covered within webinar

  • Highlight an RTOs responsibilities for facilitating continuing professional development under the Standards for RTOs 2025.
  • Identify what constitutes relevant, meaningful and appropriate PD for a range of VET workforce roles.
  • Discuss how to create robust PD options across the VET workforce.
  • Explain how professional development could be effectively tracked and evidenced at audit.
  • Review case studies to support the implementation of a successful RTO professional development program.
