Is it possible for ASQA to provide detailed advice on ‘how to be compliant’?

ASQA provides detailed guidance on what compliance with the Standards might look like in its publications, which include:

• Users’ Guide to Standards for Registered Training Organisations (RTO) 2015
• Fact sheets
• Frequently asked questions.

However, the information in these documents provides guidance only. It’s important to understand that the VET Quality Framework, which includes the Standards for RTOs 2015, does not prescribe how an RTO must demonstrate compliance. As such, what compliance will look like will vary for each provider, depending on factors including scope of registration, student cohorts, delivery modes, and so on. ASQA cannot provide a one-size-fits-all guide to compliance for all RTOs. Rather, each RTO has the autonomy to determine the best practices that suit their business model.
