about rto

Training & assessment and general RTO resources

We develop practical and compliant resources for use in the domestic and international markets for workplace, face to face, online, or blended delivery models. The resources that we develop have consistently passed audit. Through consultation, your specific requirements are identified and we then develop practical and compliant learning and assessment resources.

We can also review and provide feedback on existing RTO training and assessment resources and whether they are compliant with the VET or ESOS compliance frameworks. Feedback and coaching on how to develop existing materials to address compliance issues is provided in a manner that enables clients to understand the issues and how to address them.
