Under the Training Initiative Funding Agreement (Agreement) each approved training provider must conduct an internal review a minimum of once every calendar year to self-assess its current level of compliance with the Agreement, the ACT Standards for Delivery of Subsidised Training and the associated ACT Standards Compliance Guides.
The objectives of the RTO internal review are to:
- assist training providers to meet their contractual obligations
- assist training providers to meet the minimum service requirements of each ACT funded training initiative
- promote quality training and assessments systems
- ensure accurate reporting and record keeping practices
- provide a set of outcomes for training providers to self-assess compliance and assist in establishing a framework to identify and develop improvement practices.
All training providers with an Agreement must use the RTO Internal Review Tool (the tool) to conduct and record the outcome of its own annual internal review.
The tool must be completed and submitted to Skills Canberra using the online SmartForm.
