Training component changes
With only 954 changes to training components December, it was a quiet month by any measure, as we might expect. Modest changes were made to Business, Safety and Sport subject areas.
A lot of changes can happen in a month, with many RTOs automatically adding new equivalent components to their scope. With VET BI, you set your watch list to notify you when a competitor in your regions of interest adds an item to scope in an category you are interested in. This gives you a more tightly focused view of your competitors changes to scope.
Funding changes
The main activity in December (as in November) was that 8 RTOs were allowed to delivery funded training in SA. South Australia is the stand-out leader in government funding increases for VET courses for the past few months.
VET BI can provide you with email alerts about who’s getting funding (and who’s not) that is targeted to your subjects and regions of interest.
