RTO MANAGER SERIES 2027 | OPERATIONS | WORKSHOP 20 OF 30

Make sure the RTO can actually resource what it has designed

Ensure each approved training program has suitable, sufficient, accessible & available learning resources, facilities & equipment before & throughout delivery.

Programs can be sound on paper but fail when resources are outdated, equipment is insufficient, facilities are unsuitable or licences & external environments are assumed rather than checked. The management challenge is not simply to have a policy, form or procedure in place... It is to make ownership, decision rights, controls & evidence visible enough that managers can see whether the function is operating as intended & intervene when it starts to drift.

Do we have the right resources, facilities & equipment, in the right condition & quantity, available when learners need them?

Examine where responsibilities sit, what controls should operate, what information management should be able to see & which exceptions or indicators should trigger review, escalation or corrective action.
