Re-registration and renewal

For RTOs whose registration expires within the next 18 months.

Renewal lodged at least 90 days out, with the evidence already in order.

The problem

Prepare for renewal by reviewing your compliance systems, resolving gaps and organising the evidence for your application. We work backwards from the applicable deadline to agree a practical preparation plan.
