INTRODUCTION

What is a Victorian Purchasing Guide?

The Victorian Purchasing Guide (VPG) provides information for use by Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) in the provision of Victorian government subsidised training.

Specifically, the VPG provides the following information related to the delivery of nationally endorsed Training Packages in Victoria:

  • maximumand minimum payable hours available for each qualification.
  • nominal hours for each unit of competency within the Training Package.

They also contain sample training programs which reflect a vocational outcome for the particular qualification it has been developed for.

Victorian Government subsidised training

To deliver government subsidised training in Victoria, an RTO must have an approved VET funding contract with the Department of Education and Training (DET).

The VET funding contract and related guidelines set out the requirements that RTOs must abide by to maintain compliance as contracted providers in receipt of government subsidy. The contract and guidelines set standards of behaviour, as well as prescribing minimum requirements with regard to provider practice in the delivery of training services.

For further information relating to obtaining a VET funding contract, please visit the Skills Victoria Training System (SVTS) website:
