Resources
The RTO will ensure students have access to a range of resources as required in the units and training package however students will be required to have access to their own computers (including software programs such as Microsoft Office), printers, internet facilities, and stationery resources. Students will also be required to bring their own device to each session ensuring it has connectivity to the internet.
Students will be provided with Learner Guides for each unit. Support texts will be available online through BookBoon.com
Assessment
Assessment is competency based. Students are required to complete written and practical tasks, which reflect the requirements of the units of competency and current workplace practices. Assessment is continuous throughout the duration of the course.
Completed and submitted work will be assessed within ten (10) working days and feedback provided to the student as soon as possible thereafter. Where the student’s work is assessed to be not yet satisfactory, he / she will be provided with additional advice, coaching or tutoring and the opportunity to re-submit the work with a view to having it assessed as satisfactory.
Feedback and information regarding the student’s competency, progress and study will be provided by the facilitator on a regular and ongoing basis. Ongoing support is also available to all learners and will be provided as soon as a need is identified.
Student Support
To maximise the chance of students successfully completing their training, the RTO will identify any support individual students need prior to their enrolment and provide access to that support throughout their training. This will be done using both the Enrolment Form, and a Pre-Enrolment Form, that students are required to fill in.
The aim of both documents is to provide any support that may be required. This could include:
Language, Literacy and Numeracy (LLN) support;
Assistive Technology
Additional Tutorials, and / or
Other mechanisms, such as assistance in using technology for online delivery components.
Where this support attracts an additional cost to the student, the RTO will make this clear prior to accepting the student’s enrolment. If there are limitations to the support your RTO is able to provide, these limitations will be made clear in information provided to a potential student.
Where the RTO identifies required support, such as literacy or numeracy, English or other language barriers or physical capabilities, and it cannot provide such support directly, it will refer the student to a third party. The costs of such third-party support will the responsibility of the individual.
Where the RTO is not capable of offering an environment suitable for the needs of a student with specific identified needs, it will inform them accordingly and may direct the student to a provider that can, and thus will not process their enrolment.
