Bendigo Livous Training Institute has followed this 6 steps- process to comply with ASQA requires regarding the RTO industry Consultation.
\n\n\n\n
1. Appoint an industry consultation coordinator/s
\n\n\n\n
2. Identify the main purpose of conducting the consultation
\n\n\n\n
BLTI would like to have feedback as to the type of electives to include or to check if our assessments are valid - reflecting the current workplace and if our marking guide reflects good practice in industry.
\n\tAsk industry about the current or emerging trends we need to be aware of to inform our training and assessment practices.
\n\tMoreover, we also want to strengthen relationships with industry to improve work placements, to create confidence in our training and assessment and improve our brand as an RTO, to encourage greater collaboration and invite industry experts to provide master classes to students and staff or to visit their workplace to familiarise ourself with an advanced technology unaffordable for our RTO.
