Step 1—Intention to renew

Before you begin detailed work on your application for course renewal, you need to submit your intention to renew form.

You will need to include:

  • evidence showing there is an ongoing need for your course
  • research that supports your application
  • completion numbers and projected enrolment numbers
  • stakeholders willing to be involved with your course review.

Stakeholder engagement is critical. It will help you build support for the continued accreditation of your course.

We may contact your key stakeholders during the evaluation process.

If your course duplicates any existing training packages, it will not be approved.
