Diversity and Inclusion - Standard 2.5

Standard 2.5 relates to the focus area of diversity and inclusion.

Key Organisations

There are a number of key organisations in Australia’s National VET System, including those that develop, deliver, regulate and research VET in Australia.

Reforms and Changes

This area on the Knowledge Hub is dedicated to keeping you up-to-date with the latest reforms and changes in the VET sector

VET Quality Framework (VQF) - Australia wide

The VET Quality Framework (VQF) is a set of standards and conditions used by the Australian Skills Quality Authority (ASQA), the national VET regulator, to assess whether registered training organisations (RTOs) under its jurisdiction meet the requirements for registration. To obtain and retain registration, RTOs must comply with each of the elements and their associated components.

Compliance Standards

The Compliance Requirements set out requirements relating to accountability, integrity of nationally recognised training products, and information and transparency that RTOs must meet at all times to protect VET students and support the integrity of Australia’s VET sector.

AVETMISS

AVETMISS outlines the format required for the submission of descriptive data about students and their study activities.

Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF)

The AQF applies in all states and territories and describes the standards for regulated Australian qualifications delivered through schools, higher education institutions and RTOs.

Skill Sets and Microcredentials

Skill Sets are a single Unit of Competency or combinations of Units of Competency from an endorsed Training Package, which link to a licensing or regulatory requirement, or a defined industry need or job role. Micro-credentials are small, certification-style courses that focus on a particular area of study to hone proficiency over the shortest possible time.

VelgCasts

VelgCasts are short videos specifically designed to professionally develop those new to the sector, or those who are looking for a brief refresher. A VelgCast is just like a PodCast, a digital audio file made available FREE to members.

Qualifications

As one part of the endorsed component of a Training Package, qualifications are a group of Units of Competency ‘packaged’ together as the requirement for working in a particular industry role at a specific level. A qualification is also the official documentation recognising competency in all of the units specific to a particular grouping of units.

Funding Arrangements

Knowing what qualifications are listed for funding contracts, and what threshold amounts are, is vital when looking to secure this type of income stream for your RTO.

Artificial Intelligence

Valuable information, tools, and supportive links to navigate the evolving landscape of AI in education.
