All the information you require as a student is available in our Client Information Handbook here and this will be emailed to you on enrolment.

Initial Enquiries

Scheduled Courses are listed on the right and enquiries on particular courses can be made using the Personal or Corporate Enquiry Form for the particular course on the left.

Note:- All courses are fee for service and we do not provide any arrangements under the VET FEE-HELP, government funded subsidy or other financial support arrangements.

We also do not guarantee that:

• a student will successfully complete a training product on our scope of registration, or
• a training product can be completed in a manner which does not meet the requirements of the Standards for Registered Training Organisations 2015, or
• a student will obtain a particular employment outcome where this is outside the control of the RTO.

Scheduled Courses

Upcoming scheduled courses are shown on the right or alternatively the Course Schedule provides access to the calendar where all courses can be perused.

Note:- Courses displayed with business details are not available to individuals.

Online Enrolment is the requested means of enrolling.

If Online Enrolment is not available then the Enrolment Form may be used.

Unique Student Identifier

The Unique Student Identifier is now a requirement in the VET sector when it comes to obtaining qualifications.

Our Online Enrolment asks for a USI and if you do not have a USI, the Letter and Form here explains the requirements. 

Student Portal

Once enrolled you will be provided with information on how to access the Student Portal which allows you the ability to communicate with your Trainer and also to manage aspects of your training and to view your records.

Under the AQTF there is a requirement for maintaining training records for 30 years.  For these reasons DTW Designs uses the VETtrak Enterprise® Training Database for AVETMISS Compliance and Record Keeping.

Beside the AQTF, Workplace Health and Safety Authorities also require that records of Licence for High Risk Work Assessments are maintained for 5 years.

Induction

We use our Induction Checklist Form to ensure you are informed of our processes and your rights.

Recognition of Prior Learning & Current Competency

If you have a work history and experience in operating Boilers, Steam Turbines or Reciprocating Steam Engines and need this experience formally recognised, we can provide Recognition of Prior Learning.

This will also require you to undertake the mandatory challenge test as required by the Workplace Health and Safety Authorities.  You can contact us and request a Recognition of Prior Learning Kit to make application.

Training

Courses will normally be conducted at your work site but some courses may be conducted at the DTW Designs Office.  Details of all Classes can be viewed in the Student Portal.
