• Those wanting to formalise and have recognised current skills in training and assessing as well as instructional design and development of learning programs and resources
• Those who want nationally recognised higher level training and assessment qualification
• Trainers and assessors delivering the TAE40116 Certificate IV in Training and Assessment or any assessor skill set from the TAE Training and Education Training Package

Please note these are NOT pre-requisites, simply preferences. Candidates may

• hold the TAE40110, TAE40116 or TAE50111 and assessment and have the experience outlined below, or
• hold another relevant VET qualification and have the experience outlined below, or
• have the extensive vocational experience as follows:
• The candidate is an experienced practitioner delivering training and assessment services usually within Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) within the vocational education and training (VET) sector.
• The candidate may have a role in leading other trainers and assessors and in providing mentoring or advice to new trainers or assessors as well as designing approaches to learning and assessment strategies across a significant area within an RTO.
• The candidate is a training developer and instructional designer who is responsible for analysing training needs and designing training solutions and products to meet workplace capability requirements, and evaluating the effectiveness of training programs.
• The candidate may have a role in providing guidance and advice to trainers and assessors, promoting innovative practices, e.g. e-learning, and in researching and incorporating best practice in training and assessment into training programs and products.

There is significant overlapping in the packaging rules for these qualifications, so it is a reasonably simple process to gain both qualifications at the same time.
