This Guide aims to support the continuous improvement processes implied within Element 1.1 and 1.5 of the Australian Quality Training Framework (AQTF) Essential Standards for Registration. The Guide is not intended to be adhered to by training organisations, nor has it been designed to introduce an additional quality assurance layer. Instead, its aim is to supplement the information within the Code and provide suggestions and advice of how an organisation may establish and maintain consensus approaches to validation and/or moderation. The information provided within this Guide aims to be consistent with the relevant parts of the TAA04 Training and Assessment Training Package.
