The Challenge
Staying compliant in the VET sector requires keeping pace with shifting regulations and industry expectations. Providers are challenged by:
Constant updates to the Standards for RTOs, state-based funding contracts and national qualifications frameworks
The lag between training package updates and emerging workforce needs
Maintaining staff CPD requirements and industry currency while running daily operations
Failing to meet these obligations can lead to funding clawbacks, reputational damage or even loss of registration, making proactive compliance management essential.
Who This is For
Our Solutions
We partner with RTOs to strengthen compliance, governance and educational quality through three core service areas: Auditing, Assurance and Advisory. Each solution is designed to not only meet regulatory obligations but to build sustainable systems that support continuous improvement and long-term success.
Auditing
We deliver comprehensive internal audits designed to replicate the rigour of external regulatory reviews. Each audit maps your systems, processes and evidence against the Standards for RTO’s 2025, state funding requirements and other applicable frameworks. The outcome is a detailed report highlighting compliance strengths, risks and practical recommendations for improvement.
Assurance
Our assurance services help RTOs embed ongoing quality controls to stay audit-ready year-round. We review your compliance systems, test data integrity and assess governance processes to ensure your organisation can withstand regulatory scrutiny at any time. Assurance work is tailored to your context, whether you are a small provider or a large TAFE.
Advisory
Beyond auditing, we provide hands-on advisory support to strengthen your organisation’s capability and systems. This can include:
- Quality Management Systems: Designing or refining frameworks to ensure consistent compliance and continuous improvement.
- Audit Leadership: Leading external audits on behalf of government regulators and internal quality reviews for both public and private providers.
- Post-Audit Support: Developing and implementing rectification plans following an audit or review.
- Academic Governance: Building governance structures that meet regulatory expectations and drive educational quality.
- Curriculum Design and Development: Aligning course materials and assessments with current training package and industry standards.
- Policy, Systems and Process Design: Creating operational policies and procedures to ensure alignment between compliance and delivery.
Each advisory engagement is collaborative and focused on building systems that are sustainable and fit-for-purpose.
