DAY ONE - 27th of October

A critical component for planning an RTO’s self-assurance strategies is the conduct of an audit. In this one day workshop you will develop the skills required to establish required evidence, determine who will be involved in the audit, document findings and use the audit findings to plan future self-assurance activities.

This workshop is designed for RTO personnel who are responsible for compliance activities and have some knowledge of the Standards for RTOs 2025.

During the workshop you will receive and use the “Self-Assurance bundle”, review tools developed by RTO Consulting to aid in the conduct of interval audits and self-assurance activities.
