Training Package Support Materials

TERMINATION OF THE NOTING PROCESS

At its 4 December 2008 meeting the National Quality Council (NQC) decided that the Training Package support materials Noting Process would be reviewed in early 2009.

The review was completed by Stenning and Associate s and the NQC considered the Noting Process Evaluation Final Report at it’s meeting on 25 June 2009.

After reviewing the Final Report and its recommendations, the NQC agreed:

  • To terminate the Training Package support materials Noting Process
  • That a new quality assurance process for non-endorsed components of Training Packages be developed
  • That the work to develop the new quality assurance process for non-endorsed components of Training Packages be undertaken by DEEWR under the guidance of the NQC Framework Implementation Action Group
  • That 31 July 2009 will be the cut-off date for the submission of evaluations in train under the Noting Process (note that the NQC had previously determined, pending the review that the Noting Process would only apply to evaluations commenced prior to 12 December 2008).

Training Package support materials are resources to help learners, trainers, assessors and employers implement training and assessment based on the units of competency, assessment guidelines and qualifications from a Training Package. Support materials are not mandated. The materials may include assessor resources, learner and/or trainer resources, professional development materials, promotional material and Training Package guides designed to inform Registered Training Organisations and employers in the use of Training Packages. 

Support materials can be specific to an individual Training Package or be suitable for use across a number of, or all, Training Packages. They can be developed in a range of formats for a variety of audiences to suit different learning styles and delivery contexts, and can include printed materials, CD-ROMs, videos, web-based resources or libraries or a combination of any of these.


Any organisation or person who has developed Training Package support materials and owns copyright may have the products evaluated, by an approved Quality Assurance Consultant, against the National Quality Council (NQC) Noted Quality Principles. Consultant fees for the evaluation are met by the developer. Products that meet the NQC Noted Quality Principles are noted by the NQC, can carry the ‘noted tick’ logo and can be listed on the National Training Information Service (http://www.ntis.gov.au).  Please note: Due to technical difficulties with the NTIS website, noted Training Package support materials are currently available at the following link: http://www.training.com.au/portal/site/public/menuitem.2bfb89a692f0f35f4994201017a62dbc/.

The Noting Process is currently managed by the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations. For further information on the Noting Process contact Aimee Benge on telephone (02) 6240 9299 or email Aimee.Benge@deewr.gov.au.
