In this episode of the podcast Claire is joined by Chemène Sinson and Maria Langwell to discuss the Revised Standards and why it's important that the Standards should still include a definition of 'competency', why there is a need for proper education and support for RTOs during this transition, and how training providers can map their existing practices to the new Standards. If you haven't seen the Revised Standards yet - they're still technically in draft form until they are legislated - but they have been signed off by State, Territory and Australian government Skills Ministers, so for now they're available on the DEWR website: https://www.dewr.gov.au/standards-for-rtos [https://www.dewr.gov.au/standards-for-rtos] And if you don't know Maria or Chemène - here's where you'll find them on LinkedIn: * https://www.linkedin.com/in/chemenesinson/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/chemenesinson/] * https://www.linkedin.com/in/maria-langwell-23617766/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/maria-langwell-23617766/] Contact Claire: * Connect with me on LinkedIn: Claire Field [https://www.linkedin.com/in/claire-field-and-associates/] * Follow me on Bluesky: @clairefield.bsky.social [https://bsky.app/profile/clairefield.bsky.social] * Check out the news pages on my website: clairefield.com.au [https://clairefield.com.au] * Email me at: admin@clairefield.com.au The ‘What now?
