About this template
The Standards for Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) 2015 have specific requirements for trainers and assessors.
This trainer and assessor profile may be used by Queensland school RTOs to assist with gathering the required evidence. The information in the trainer and assessor profile must be of an auditable standard, meaning that it contains verifiable information that meets the requirements of the Standards.
Relevant standards: 1.3, 1.6, 1.13, 1.14, 1.15, 1.16, Schedule 1.
Who should use it
This document has been provided by the Queensland Curriculum and Assessment Authority (QCAA) for use in Queensland school RTOs.
Other people or organisations who want to use QCAA materials must obtain permission, as stated in the copyright notice available from: www.qcaa.qld.edu.au/copyright.html.
Queensland school RTOs may use this document to assist with their quality assurance processes and systematic monitoring of RTO operations as outlined within the regulatory Standards for Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) 2015. These standards form part of the VET Quality Framework.
The RTO Manager (RTOM) is responsible for monitoring the training and assessment practices. Both the RTOM and the Principal (CEO) are responsible for ensuring their trainers and assessors meet the requirements of the Standards.
How to use it
Read through and customise the information to represent the RTO’s current policies and practices. The format is recommended, but not mandatory. All sections except Section4 must be completed for all trainers/assessors. The Standards also require confirmation from industry that trainers have current industry skills and this has been incorporated into Section6.
