Purchase for $33 (AUD) incl. GST

Take a detailed look at the Principle of Fairness!

Ensure you're across the new definition & changes to Fairness under the SRTO 2025!

Explore a deep and practical understanding of how fairness is applied, implemented and demonstrated in competency-based assessment under the Standards for RTOs 2025.

Rooted in the values of access and equity, trace the evolution of fairness as a professional obligation within the VET sector. Explore how early definitions of competency and assessment focused on workplace performance and the ability to apply knowledge across contexts. As the system matured, the expectations of assessment fairness expanded.

Unpack the terminology used in the SRTO 2025, explaining how fairness is embedded in the principles of assessment. Through real-world examples, explore how fairness applies to:

  • Reasonable adjustment.
  • Learner-centred support.
  • Reassessment and appeal options.

Consider how fairness must be balanced with the integrity of the training product - showing that adjustments should support access without compromising the competency standard.
