It is strongly recommended that you are currently working in an RTO or will be again very shortly, as you’ll find it extremely difficult (near impossible) to complete the assessments and the required practical hours to complete the diploma qualification satisfactorily.

Yes, either the TAE40116 or TAE40122. The diploma is only for those who hold the Cert IV in Training and Assessment and have been working as a trainer and assessor for a number of years. This is because it requires the documenting of a lot of quantifiable evidence such as 100 hours of facilitation, collaboration with peers and leading of other VET Trainers and assessors against 30 assessment judgments etc.

Yes, you can, but keep in mind that each specialisation is considered a new diploma course, so you will pay for another diploma to do the second and third specialisation. However, if you’ve already done one diploma with us, the second one is 10% off, and if you do the third one with us too, it’s 20% off.

The actual cost to you will vary depending on how many units you can do a credit transfer for . Basically, the cost of each additional specialisation still costs less than the first one.

After making your deposit payment, you’ll be sent to a booking page to book your enrolment interview. A confirmation email will then be sent to you with everything you need to prepare for that interview.

The interview can be booked on the same day, but there is a minimum of a 4-hour gap from applying to being able to do the enrolment interview. This is so you have time to get prepared.

HEADS UP: You will need your USI (Student Identifier) before you get to your interview.

You will also be required to complete a Personal Learning Plan (PLP) which can be done one of 2 ways:

1. You can have this discussion in your enrolment interview, but you will need to have emailed all of your course transcripts to us prior to the interview OR 
2. You can be sent the PLP Survey to complete prior to your interview. 

Your interview is done via Google Meet or phone (if preferred). This means that you can ask additional questions before enrolling and clarify anything you’re unsure of. We also get to make sure you have chosen the right course pathway and support package for what you really need.

During the interview, we’ll conduct a "Suitability Assessment." This series of questions will help us determine whether you can meet the technical, practical, and skill requirements needed to confidently complete this course online.

The technical requirements include regular computer access, knowledge, and confidence in navigating email, logins, and websites. The practical questions ensure you have access to the human and physical resources you need to complete the assessments in your course.

We will ask additional questions about your goals, your online experience and comfort level in learning online, your learning ability, plus your availability to study. This is all to ensure you're in the right course and ready to succeed before enrolling formally. This gives you more confidence that you can absolutely get all the way to graduation.

If the course is found to be unsuitable for you, your deposit (including the $150 enrolment interview fee) will be fully refunded. However, the enrolment fee is not refunded if you don't show up for your enrolment interview or change your mind after the interview within the 30-day cooling-off period.

If during your Enrolment Interview we discover this course is not suitable for you, we’ll offer other alternative solutions or refund all fees paid, including the $150 deposit.
