Off the job training continues to cause challenges for providers from both a compliance and quality perspective.
Changes to rules on minimum hours from August 2025 are only now impacting providers as they face up to difficulties with evidencing completion but the day to day problem remains understanding what does and does not count and how should it be planned for in curriculum. Do you, and your organisation, have confidence that you fully understand this critical area?
We’ll help you to understand:
- The published minimums for OTJT
- Rules on planning and distributing off the job hours
- What does and doesn’t count
- Evidence requirements for planning and implementing off the job
- How to apply recognition of prior learning to content and price
- Monitoring ‘Active learning’
You’ll also walk away with four tools:
1) Example training plan structure
2) Recognition of Prior learning calculator
3) Example off the job training log
4) Off the job training compliance checklist
