Training Packages

 

The Australian Vocational Education and Training (VET) system aims to provide individuals with work-ready skills for the labour market – skills that businesses and industries need to be highly productive and internationally competitive.

 

Training Packages are a key element of the national VET system, specifying the skills and knowledge required to perform effectively in the workplace. These skills and knowledge requirements are captured in Units of Competency, which can be packaged into nationally recognised qualifications aligned to the Australian Qualifications Framework and industry recognised Skill Sets.

 

Training Packages are developed through an extensive consultation process, Under the leadership of Industry Reference Committees, Training Packages are developed through an extensive consultation process with numerous stakeholders including employer and employee representatives, peak bodies, State and Territory Training Authorities, Industry Training Advisory Bodies and the public.
