To apply to add a qualification (training product):
- check packaging rules on the National Training Register Training.gov.au
- complete a TAS for the training product you plan to add to your RTOs scope of registration. Save the completed document in an easily accessible location.
- check that your RTO can provide evidence of meeting any relevant government regulation product if required, for example:
- blue card
- GCIT General construction induction training (previously the white card)
- special conditions and regulatory requirements relating to risks associated with units of competency, trainer and assessor qualification/s and currency and licencing requirements under the delegation of the QCAA.
- log in to the QCAA Portal
- complete an ‘Add qualification’ activity, in the VET application, including uploading the saved, completed TAS.
- A QCAA assessor will be assigned to review the change of scope application.
- During an application, the assessor:
- will undertake a risk assessment
- may request further evidence
- will meet with the RTO manager
- You will be notified that your application has either been:
- approved, including the date it will be added to your RTO’s scope of registration.
- rejected, with reason for rejecting the application.
Once you receive notification that the training product has been added to scope:
- review the 'offered' box in the VET application for each of the units
- tick the 'offered' box for all units listed in the TAS. Ensure alignment between TAS and Student Management.
Note:
- Units without a tick in the ‘offered’ box will not be available for enrolment in Student Management.
- It can take up to 90 calendar days to approve a training product application.
- RTOs can only advertise and deliver approved training products. (It is unlawful to advertise or promote a training product that is not on your scope of registration.)
- School RTOs should apply to add a training product at least six months before they plan to deliver.
