Must we hold the TAE40110?
A large training industry is emerging, convincing us we must hold TAE40110
Tens of thousands of trainers & assessors unsure whether to:

How to avoid ‘commodotisation’ of TAE40110?

7. Questions and discussion
How to demonstrate ‘equivalent competencies’?
How to prevent kneejerk upgrade to TAE40110 marketed as ‘regulatory’ compliance?

IBSA suggest resources may be better spent in developing skills at the Diploma level, rather than kneejerk upgrade; and/or
Time may be better spent developing vocational competence?
Developing RPL tools for TAE40110?
Develop templates for BSZ/TAE holders - who have relevant continued professional development - to clearly demonstrate ‘equivalent competencies.’
