Australia’s VET qualification design will be transitioning to a new approach, as agreed to by Skills Ministers on 6 December 2024. The updated model is designed to improve quality, reduce complexity and provide opportunities for new and adaptable approaches to qualifications, representing a shift away from a one size fits all approach to qualification design.
A revised Training Package Organising Framework will be available to support the new model, which will be transitioned to through a phased approach, with new templates becoming available for use by developers from 1 July 2025.
The new model was developed by the tripartite Qualification Reform Design Group and informed by research and consultations undertaken by Jobs and Skills Councils.
Skills Insight will continue to participate in qualification reform activities as we embed the new requirements into our future work.
