Industry Experts in VET

Overview

The ASQA Standards for Registered Training Organisations Amendment (VET Workforce Support) Instrument 2024 were amended on 1 March 2024, to allow industry experts to assist in the delivery of training alongside a trainer and/or assessor. This builds on the previous provision for industry experts to be involved in the assessment judgement, working alongside the trainer and/or assessor to conduct the assessment.

An industry expert is an individual who has relevant specialised industry or subject matter expertise who is engaged by the RTO on the basis of that expertise. Industry experts must have the relevant vocational competencies in the Work Skills Instructor Skills set (TAEPDD401 Work effectively in the VET sector + TAEDEL311 Provide work skill instruction) and have current industry skills directly relevant to the training and assessment being provided.
