*This qualification has been superseded by TAE40122 Certificate IV in Training and Assessment.

Students have 12 months to complete their qualification (Trainwest can issue up to 7 December 2023).

While a 12 month transition period usually applies, Trainwest notes that a 24 month period is referenced by PwC Skills for Australia (the Skills Service Organisation for the TAE Training Package). While this has been referenced and recommended, Trainwest are required to work towards a 12 month transition until ASQA formally advises of this 24 month transition period.

Please note, in accordance with the Standards for Registered Training Organisations (2015), the TAE40116 Certificate IV in Training and Assessment meets the requirements to deliver and assess nationally accredited training.

Please contact Trainwest for the TAE40122 Certificate IV in Training and Assessment Flyer with dates available from February 2023.
