Professional development at scale
CAQA’s professional-development history includes 120K+ courses and conferences, alongside thousands of webinars and workshops. Our work supports RTOs, TAFEs, higher education providers and the people responsible for training, assessment, compliance, administration and learner support.
This is an ongoing body of work across many organisations and roles, not a single engagement. Programs range from sector-wide learning opportunities to sessions designed around the practical needs of an individual provider.
Different ways to learn
- Courses and conferences for structured learning and professional exchange.
- Live webinars and recorded sessions for flexible access to specialist topics.
- Workshops, seminars and masterclasses that work through practical examples and workplace tasks.
- In-house training and tailored team briefings linked to a provider’s systems and priorities.
- Mentoring, coaching and facilitated discussions to support staff as they apply what they have learnt.
Topics that matter in day-to-day practice
Programs cover training and assessment practice; assessment validation and moderation; resource development and contextualisation; trainer and assessor competency and currency; governance and leadership; compliance, auditing and risk management; student support; communication; digital delivery; and continuous improvement.
We help teams interpret published requirements, examine their own practice and plan improvements. CAQA provides independent professional development and consultancy; it does not issue regulatory directions, accreditation or registration decisions.
Support beyond the session
A useful session should lead to work that a participant can apply. Tailored programs can include practical activities, discussion of the provider’s own documents, implementation actions and follow-up mentoring. Professional-development records and certificates should accurately describe the activity undertaken; participation does not itself establish competency or guarantee compliance.
