TRAINING PACKAGES, THE AUSTRALIAN QUALIFICATIONS FRAMEWORK

AND COMPETENCY STANDARDS
Training Packages
• Specify the qualifications determined by industry groups and when required, by regulatory
requirements to be most relevant for employment within the industry
• Are developed by the relevant national IRCs in consultation with a range of stakeholders
• Are recommended to the Australian Industry and Skills Committee (AISC) for endorsement by
the Council of Australian Governments (COAG) Industry and Skills Council
• Enable nationally recognised qualifications to be awarded through direct assessment of
workplace competencies
• Encourage the development and delivery of flexible training to suit individual needs and
industry requirements

• Support learning, training and assessment in a work-related environment, leading to
verifiable workplace outcomes.
The title of each endorsed Training Package is unique and relates to the broad industry coverage
of the Training Package.
Each Training Package has a unique national code assigned when the Training Package is
endorsed, for example AVI.
Training and assessment using Training Packages must be conducted by a Registered Training
Organisation (RTO) that has the qualification/s or specific Unit/s of Competency on its Scope of
Registration.
New Standards for Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) 2015 came into effect on 1 April 2015
and are located on the Australian Government ComLaw website.
Information about these standards can be found at the:
• Department of Education, Skills and Employment

• Australian Skills Quality Authority
Standards for Training Packages apply to the design and development of Training Packages for
endorsement by the authorising body.
Information about these current standards, including applicable templates, can be found at the
(Department of Education, Skills and Employment) website.
These templates describe mandatory and optional information that applies to Units of
Competency, assessment requirements and qualifications.
Australian Qualifications Framework

The Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) provides a comprehensive, nationally consistent
framework for all qualifications in post-compulsory education and training in Australia. In the
Vocational Education and Training (VET) sector the AQF enables national recognition of
qualifications and Statements of Attainment.
The AVI Aviation Training Package Release 7.0 provides details of the Units of Competency that
must be achieved to award AQF qualifications.
The rules around which Units of Competency can be combined to make up a valid AQF
qualification are referred to as the packaging rules. The packaging rules must be followed to
ensure the integrity of nationally recognised qualifications issued.
The packaging rules are defined within each qualification in a Training Package.
Competency Standards
The broad concept of industry competency is the ability to perform particular tasks and duties to
the standard of performance expected in the workplace. Competency standards cover all aspects
of workplace performance and involve:
• Performing individual tasks

• Managing a range of different tasks
• Responding to contingencies or breakdowns
• Dealing with the responsibilities of the workplace, including working with others.
Workplace competency is the ability to apply relevant skills and knowledge consistently over time
and in the required workplace situations and environments.
Competency standards are determined by industry to meet industry skill needs and focus on
what is expected of a competent individual in the workplace.

• First, the qualification is identified as either Certificate I, Certificate II, Certificate III, Certificate
IV, Diploma, Advanced Diploma, Graduate Certificate, or Graduate Diploma
• This is followed by the words ‘in’ for Certificates I to IV and Graduate Certificate, and ‘of’ for
Diploma, Advanced Diploma and Graduate Diploma
• Then, the industry descriptor, for example Warehousing
• Then, if applicable, the occupational or functional stream in brackets, for example (Track
Work).
Each qualification has an eight-character code where the:
• First three characters identify the Training Package

• First number identifies the AQF qualification level
• Second and third numbers identify a qualification’s position in the sequence of qualifications
at that AQF qualification level
• Fourth and fifth numbers identify the year in which the qualification was endorsed.

Units of Competency
Codes and titles
Units of Competency are nationally agreed statements about the skills and knowledge required
for effective performance in the workplace. They outline work outcomes as defined by regulatory
requirements and agreed by industry.
As such, they identify the skills and knowledge (as outcomes) that contribute to the whole job
function − they do not describe how to perform a particular role.
Each Unit of Competency covers a specific work activity, the range of conditions under which the
activity is conducted and the foundation skills essential to performance.
The same Unit of Competency (i.e. specific work activity) can be relevant across a range of AQF
qualification levels. It is important to check the packaging rules in qualifications to establish how
Units of Competency can apply.
Extract from Standards for Training Packages
Extract from Training Package Products Policy
There are mandatory conventions specified in the Standards for Training Packages for the titles and
codes used in Training Packages and their components.
The codes are assigned to Units of Competency when the Training Package is endorsed, or when
new Units of Competency are added to an existing endorsed Training Package.
Each Unit of Competency has a specific character code where the:

• Next character/s indicates the competency field
• Numbers identify a unit’s position in the sequence of units in the competency field in the
Training Package.
For example: AVIE0001 Operate aeronautical radio
Assessment Requirements
Each Unit of Competency has its own assessment requirements that identify the:
• Performance evidence
• Knowledge evidence
• Assessment conditions

The same code is used for the Unit of Competency and its associated assessment requirements.
Not for Public Access (NFPA)
The Not for Public Access (NFPA) and Controlled Access classification should be used when the
compromise of the confidentiality of information could be expected to cause limited damage to
the national interest, organisations or individuals through impacts on national security, agency
operations or industry sector operations.
Industry stakeholders will continue to ensure that ongoing industry capability is maintained
through the delivery of national VET training and assessment to their respective departments,
agencies and jurisdictions. In general terms, Training Package materials that have been assigned
a NFPA or Controlled Access classification will include content that may:
• enable an understanding of the capabilities or procedures used sensitive or confidential

subject areas; and
• compromise the sector’s operational methodology; and
• create a risk to security or public safety.
Only those materials and information that meet the above criteria, as determined by the AISC
Secretariat, can be classified as NFPA or Controlled Access.
In recognition of the sensitive and confidential nature of the NFPA classification, the AISC directs
that:
• AIS will securely maintain any copies of the content to support their activities under the
Funding Agreement to Operate as an SSO and will provide to the AISC Secretariat;
• AISC Secretariat and/or AISC will take all reasonable steps to maintain the confidentiality of
the content and will not use, communicate or disclose the content to any other person or
body without the prior consent of the nominated industry authority;
• the nominated industry authority and the AIS are to periodically review and maintain a
record of decisions relating to the classification of Training Package materials as NFPA or
Controlled Access material. The rationale for the classification of individual or collective NFPA
materials will be included within the respective Training Package Case for Endorsement;
• content of the materials will not be required to be uploaded onto the Training Package
Content Management System (TPCMS) or the Repository VETNet;
• metadata of the units will be uploaded onto TPCMS using the confidential component option;
• the nominated industry authority will manage all requests for access to the materials; and
• consistent with the Funding Agreement to Operate as an SSO all Training Package materials
remain the Intellectual Property of the Commonwealth.

KEY WORK AND TRAINING REQUIREMENTS IN THE INDUSTRY

The Aviation industry provides vital services to Australia, underpinning the operation of the
national economy, enabling links to geographically isolated regions, providing tourism and
helping Australian business continue to grow.
The industry had an estimated annual revenue over $43 billion in 2017 and employs over 88,000
people across the major subsectors: domestic commercial aviation, international commercial
aviation, general aviation, air-freight aviation, and aviation support infrastructure.

Both the local and international Aviation industry will continue to grow into the future, with
demand for Australian trained, highly skilled professionals continuing to increase, posing a
challenge to prevent industry poaching of skilled workers from overseas markets. Despite this,
the international stage will provide an exciting opportunity for Australia’s aviation capacity to
continue to expand.
The industry also faces ongoing challenges from developing and emerging technology, including
remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS), digitalisation, new air traffic control (ATC) systems and
ground operations systems to improve efficiency and improve safety. With increasing volumes of
people moving through airports around the world, security in aviation will remain a strong focus
into the future, requiring new systems of tracking and skills to ensure the safety of all personnel
involved.
The national aviation workforce faces challenges within aerodrome operations, the ongoing costs
of high-quality training, and the sustainability of running regional airports which provide a vital
lifeline to many regional communities across Australia. Working with the industry to ensure the
retention of the highly skilled staff, where significant investment in training has taken place, is
vital to provide longevity and sustainability to the industry.
The ever-changing regulatory environment will also provide ongoing challenges. It is vital to be
able to provide fast responses to changes in regulations and legislation that surround the
aviation industry.
The AVI Aviation Training Package provides the only nationally recognised VET qualifications for
occupations involved in aerodrome operations, airport safety, ground operations, cargo services,
customer service, aviation transport protection, aviation search and rescue, management and
supervision, ATC, flight operations (pilots – aeroplane, helicopter, commercial, military, remote
and pilot in command) and flight instruction.

REGULATION AND LICENSING IMPLICATIONS FOR IMPLEMENTATION

People employed in the Aviation industry need to fulfil competency and training requirements as
detailed in the regulations relevant to their occupation. People assessed as complying with these
requirements are usually provided with some form of certification by the Civil Aviation Safety
Authority (CASA) or other relevant bodies.
These are certificates required by the relevant state/territory or Australian legislation or

international code or convention before a person can be allowed to work in the occupation
covered under the legislation. These certificates should not be confused with national
educational qualifications that are issued by RTOs. While in the Aviation industry there is a close
relationship between the regulatory certificates and the national VET qualifications, they are
issued by different organisations under different legislative authorities.
Individuals seeking accreditation as a Transport Security Screening Officer should check industry-
specific accreditation requirements with the Aviation and Maritime Security Division of the
Department of Home Affairs.
Individuals seeking certification or licensing outcomes for specific occupations should confirm
regulatory requirements with the relevant Australian Government agency for the following
occupational areas:

Aviation Transport Security
Department of Home Affairs: https://www.homeaffairs.gov.au
Flight Operations
Civil Aviation Safety Authority: https://www.casa.gov.au
Ground Operations
Civil Aviation Safety Authority: https://www.casa.gov.au
Air Traffic Services
Airservices Australia: http://www.airservicesaustralia.com/careers/air-traffic-controller
The Australian Defence Force (ADF) owns and operates aircraft for the defence of Australia. The
ADF has developed and established a regulatory framework for ADF aircraft in much the same
way as commercial aviation meets regulations determined by CASA. Therefore, RTOs delivering
training for Defence must interpret the competencies in accordance with relevant Defence
Orders, instructions, publications and regulations. Accreditation may also be required.
Should RTOs delivering training or assessment require further information, they should contact:
Assistant Director National Skills Framework

Directorate Education and Learning Systems
Defence Education and Training Development Branch
Campbell Park (Defence) ACT 2600.

IMPLEMENTATION INFORMATION
KEY FEATURES OF THE TRAINING PACKAGE AND THE INDUSTRY THAT

PATHWAYS ADVICE
Attachment D provides sector and qualification pathways guidance. Information about specific
pathways relevant to qualifications in the Training Package is best provided by RTOs delivering
the qualifications and state/territory advisory bodies.
Generally, all qualifications in the AVI Aviation Training Package are suitable for delivery via an
Australian Apprenticeship pathway.
The Australian Apprenticeships website offers information about traineeships and

apprenticeships and includes links to State and Territory Training Authorities (STAs) that monitor
provision.
Attachment D: Aviation Training Package pathways advice
ACCESS AND EQUITY

Good VET, and assessment include making adjustments to meet the learning and assessment
needs of individuals. An open mind, common sense and tailoring training and assessment to
individual circumstances should ensure individuals achieve the standards employers and RTOs
expect.
Adjustments can be made to assist learners to access and participate in VET. Adjustments are
reasonable if they achieve this purpose and take into account factors, such as the nature of the
learner’s ability and disability, the views of the learner, the potential effect of the adjustment on
the learner and others, and the costs and benefits of making the adjustment.
Reasonable adjustments need only be that – reasonable. It is about identifying what adjustments
might reasonably be made and how they may be put into place.
Assessment processes and techniques should be modified for distance-based learners, be

culturally appropriate and suitable to the communication skill level, language, literacy and
numeracy (LLN) capacity of the candidate and the work being performed.
An individual’s access to the assessment process should not be adversely affected by restrictions
placed on the location or context of assessment.
FOUNDATION SKILLS
Language, literacy and numeracy (LLN) skills can make the difference between whether someone
succeeds in training and at work. These important skills are now called ‘core skills’ or ‘foundation
skills’ because they are at the core of – or the foundation to – other more specific technical skills.
All Units of Competency in AVI Aviation Training Packages clearly describe the foundation skills
that are essential to performance in the elements and performance criteria of the unit.
There is a distinction between ‘core skills’ and ‘foundation skills’ in Training Packages, which can
be summarised as follows:

• Core skills are those described in the Australian Core Skills Framework (ACSF): learning,
numeracy, oral communication (speaking and listening), reading and writing.
• Foundation skills is the term that the Australian Government uses in a number of different
contexts, including vocational Units of Competency, to capture LLN skills and employment
skills.
In the AVI Aviation Training Package, foundation skills are explicit in the performance criteria in
each Unit of Competency.
This is achieved with the use of key words or phrases to indicate foundation skills that are
essential to performance. It is important to note that foundation skills may not have the same
meaning in every instance and do need to be considered in the relevant job context.
The significance of each of these skills will also vary in respect to job roles and the strengths of
individuals. It is important for users of the Training Package to contextualise relevant foundation
skills identified in Units of Competency and assessment requirements.
FSK Foundation Skills Training Package

The FSK Foundation Skills Training Package allows RTOs to choose and deliver foundation skills
units, qualifications and Skill Sets that will enable learners to build the specific foundation skills
they need to achieve vocational competency.
Foundation skills units provide additional information about the types LLN skills that are needed
to meet the requirements of vocational units.
The Training Package can be downloaded from www.training.gov.au.
HEALTH AND SAFETY IMPLICATIONS IN THE INDUSTRY

Work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) has been used in Units of
Competency to refer to the relevant legislation. As not all jurisdictions have implemented the
Model Work Health and Safety (WHS) Act the combined term is used to recognise that either the
national model or existing state/territory instrument will apply, as specified by the relevant
regulatory authority.
In jurisdictions where the Model WHS Act has not been implemented, RTOs are advised to
contextualise the Unit of Competency by referring to the existing state OHS legislative
requirements.

RESOURCES AND EQUIPMENT RELEVANT TO THE TRAINING PACKAGE
The assessment requirements relevant to each Unit of Competency refer to the relevant
resources and equipment required for assessment.
Where a specific vehicle or piece of equipment is referred to, it must be used in the relevant
assessment.
In particular, for assessment, access is required to:
• a range of relevant exercises, case studies and/or simulations

• a vehicle typical of that used in the industry
• applicable documentation, including workplace procedures, regulations, codes of practice
and operation manuals
• relevant materials, tools, equipment and personal protective equipment (PPE) currently used
in industry.
Specific assessment requirements and strategies are defined in the relevant Unit of Competency
where applicable.
RTOs can only conduct training and/or assessment of the qualifications and/or Units of
Competency in this Training Package provided they are covered by their Scope of Registration.
The assessment requirements for each Unit of Competency specify the relevant resources and
equipment required to achieve the vocational outcomes of the AVI Aviation Training Package.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR LEARNERS IN THE WORKPLACE/ON

PLACEMENTS
Legal requirements that apply to specific industries and VET vary across each state and territory,
and the Commonwealth, and can change.
Contact relevant state/territory and Commonwealth departments to determine specific legal

requirements.

QUALITY ASSURANCE PROCESS

A CVIG is initiated in accordance with the requirements of the National Skills Standard Council
(NSSC) Standards for Training Packages and is located within the CVIG.
The steps in the Quality Assurance (QA) process as they apply to the CVIG are:
1. The CVIG is developed by the Industry Skills Specialist (ISS) in accordance with Standards 11
and 12 (Standards for Training Packages):
• Standard 11: A quality assured Companion Volume Implementation Guide produced by

the Training Package developer is available at the time of endorsement and complies
with the Companion Volume Implementation Guide template
• Standard 12: Training Package developers produce other quality assured companion
volumes to meet the needs of their stakeholders as required
2. Content is validated and amended as part of the validation stage in the implementation of
the Standards.
3. The CVIG is submitted for external QA with the Training Package changes, to ensure it is
available at the time of endorsement.
4. As the implementation of the Standards continues for the Training Package, the CVIG is
reviewed by the ISS to ensure mapping tables are updated and any additional information is
added as required. Proposed changes are subject to industry validation as part of the
endorsement process.
5. Where changes are made to a Training Package and minor amendments are required for the
CVIG, the ISS includes amendments as part of the validation phase and incorporates the
reference in the version control modification history at the front of the CVIG.
