Training Packages
Training packages are the nationally endorsed resource that training organisations
will use to develop training courses.
A training package is not a curriculum package but integrates nationally recognised
and endorsed competency standards (either industry or enterprise based),
assessment guidelines (developed and agreed by the relevant industry
within broad national parameters) and qualifications (under the Australian
Qualifications Framework). Training packages encompass a range of outcomes
across a number of qualification levels
