The Training Regulations (TR) serve as basis for the:

                        1   Competency assessment and certification;
                        2   Registration and delivery of training programs; and
                        3   Development of curriculum and assessment instruments.

                        Each TR has four sections:

                        Section 1     Definition of Qualification – describes the qualification and defines
                                      the competencies that comprise the qualification.

                        Section 2     The  Competency  Standards  format  was  revised  to  include  the
                                      Required Knowledge  and  Required  Skills  per  element.  These  fields
                                      explicitly  state  the  required  knowledge  and  skills  for  competent
                                      performance  of  a  unit  of  competency  in  an  informed  and  effective
                                      manner.  These  also  emphasize  the  application  of  knowledge  and
                                      skills to situations where understanding is converted into a workplace
                                      outcome.

                        Section 3     Training  Arrangements  -  contain  information  and  requirements
                                      which  serve  as  bases  for  training  providers  in  designing  and
                                      delivering  competency-based  curriculum  for  the  qualification.  The
                                      revisions to section 3 entail identifying the Learning Activities leading
                                      to  achievement  of  the  identified  Learning  Outcome  per  unit  of
                                      competency.

                        Section 4     Assessment  and  Certification  Arrangements  -  describe  the
                                      policies  governing  assessment  and  certification  procedures  for  the
                                      qualification
