INTRODUCTION
What is a Victorian Purchasing Guide?
The Victorian Purchasing Guide provides information for use by Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) in
the provision of Victorian government subsidised training.
Specifically the Victorian Purchasing Guide provides the following information related to the delivery of
nationally endorsed Training Packages in Victoria:
 The maximum and minimum payable hours available for each qualification.
 Nominal hours for each unit of competency within the Training Package.
Registration
RTOs must be registered by either the Victorian Registration and Qualifications Authority (VRQA) or the
Australian Skills Qualification Authority (ASQA) regulatory body to be eligible to issue qualifications and
statements of attainment under the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF).
The VRQA is the regulatory authority for Victoria responsible for the registration of education and training
providers in VET who provide courses to domestic students only and who only offer training in Victoria only
or Victoria and Western Australia only.
To register to provide training to international students and in other Australian states and territories you will
need to apply with ASQA.
