What is the focus of the Audit The audit will review evidence provided by the RTO to inform a recommendation about: • the appropriateness of management systems, delivery strategies and other resources • whether proposed implementation of delivery strategies meets training package requirements • the suitability and sufficiency of facilities and equipment, and • the competence of nominated delivery teachers.
What is the audit process?
