2.7. WHAT VOLUME OF LEARNING?

The Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) provides a guide to the volume of learning, which describes how long a learner who does not hold any of the competencies identified in the relevant units of competency or modules would take to develop all the required skills and knowledge. A RTO is required to comply with the AQF in applying the volume of learning to your programs. You must therefore develop and implement strategies for training and assessment that are consistent with the AQF. The AQF ‘volume of learning’ range is considered to be a starting point for RTOs determining
the ‘amount of training required to deliver a particular qualification.
