Course accreditation

Accrediting a course, and keeping it accredited

Course accreditation, re accreditation and the VRQA or ASQA submission that carries it.

IPractice areas

Where we work.

i

Course design

Building a course that meets an identified need and can be evidenced as meeting it.

ii

Submission

Preparing and lodging the accreditation submission, including the evidence of industry need that carries it.

iii

Re accreditation

Renewing before expiry, with the review and consultation that the period of accreditation assumes you performed.

IIWhat goes wrong

The failures worth knowing about in advance.

We list these publicly because most of the value of an adviser is knowing which mistakes are common, and that knowledge is not worth hiding.

Starting too late

Accreditation timelines are long. A course that expires before the submission is decided cannot be delivered.

Need asserted, not evidenced

A statement that industry wants the course, unsupported by consultation, is the most common reason a submission is sent back.

IIIHow we work

We tell you what we find.

Including when the answer is that you do not need the engagement you asked for. An adviser who never says that is not giving you information, they are giving you an invoice.

Scope of advice

We advise on regulation and practice. Where a matter needs a legal opinion or a financial audit, we will say so and stop rather than improvise.

Start a conversation.

Describe the situation. If it is outside what we do, we will tell you that and point you at who does.
