Build upon your industry expertise and take the next step to become a qualified vocational education trainer and assessor. This qualification reflects the roles of entry-level vocational education and training (VET) teachers, trainers and assessors who are delivering training services to vocational learners and assessment services to candidates.
The roles may be undertaken by those working in registered training organisations (RTOs), enterprises, community organisations, schools and other VET provision contexts.
Entry Requirements
Students must be able to demonstrate vocational competence in your proposed training and assessing area. Vocational competence is defined as broad industry knowledge and experience and may include, but is not limited to, holding a relevant unit of competency or qualification.
Students must have access to a reliable computer with reliable internet access and a word processing program.
Students must have sufficient language, literacy, and numeracy (LLND) skills to access, interpret, and apply nationally recognised training products, assessment policies, and procedures. Students will need to read and understand relevant documentation, such as planning materials, policies, and learning resources, to identify and address learner needs. Digital literacy is required for using digital tools to access, exchange, and document information, including session plans. Writing skills are essential for preparing clear and accurate documentation with appropriate language, spelling, and terminology. Additionally, numeracy skills are necessary for estimating timeframes, scheduling tasks, and managing risks.
Date
The course will commence on Monday, 11 November 2024.
Delivery
TAE40122 will be delivered in four clusters via face-to-face learning. You must satisfactorily complete all the units listed below, including all assessments. Where a learner does not satisfactorily complete the full qualification, a statement of attainment will be issued for those units where they have been deemed competent.
Delivery Strategies
This course is focused on developing skills in delivering training and assessing and will allow students to gain real experience in the classroom, practice in small groups, and undertake holistic assessments based on current work practices. A full-time study load is expected to involve up to 20 hours a week of study.
Delivery strategies include:
- Three consecutive nights a week, once a month, for ten months
- weekly Zoom drop-in sessions during non-face-to-face weeks
Assessment Strategies
A range of assessment methods are used to collect evidence from learners. These methods include:
- Portfolio of evidence assessed by a Trainer/ Assessor of this course.
- Critical reflections on the work undertaken to demonstrate skills.
- Role plays and workplace simulation exercises where demonstration of skills cannot be achieved within the workplace.
- Presentation of information in the workplace or in a simulated work environment.
- Written reports and knowledge-based exercises demonstrate key knowledge across subjects in the form of quizzes or short answer exercises.
Please note assessments involve significant work both during and after the sessions. You will have maximum of three attempts to submit your assessment. Any additional submissions will incur a fee.
Please note that students can only progress to the next cluster if they complete the current cluster.
