Standard 1 Standard 1: The RTO provides quality training and assessment across all of its operations. 1.4 Training and assessment is delivered by trainers and assessors who: • have the necessary training and assessment competencies as determined by the National Quality Council or its successors, and • have the relevant vocational competencies at least to the level being delivered or assessed, and • can demonstrate current industry skills directly relevant to the training/assessment being undertaken, and • continue to develop their Vocational Education and Training (VET) knowledge and skills as well as their industry currency and trainer/assessor competence.
Intent All trainers and assessors of nationally recognised training meet nationally agreed competency requirements and continue to develop their competence (refer to Appendix 2 for the NQC policy in regards to training and assessing competencies for trainers and assessors).
Key actions The RTO establishes and verifies that trainers and assessors meet nationally agreed competency requirements and continue to develop their competence by: • Supporting them in meaningful engagement with industry and relevant professional bodies • Supporting their professional development in teaching and learning methods and in understanding the requirements of the VET system • Fostering a culture of critical evaluation and innovation.
