What is the duration of my course and what is the amount of training support?
All qualifications commenced with the Australian Adult Learning Institute have the duration of twelve months (Fourteen months for Leadership and Management Courses and Training and Assessment Courses) to complete from the date of enrolment. All training and assessments are conducted self paced. We recommend completing 1 unit of competency per month, or at the very least 1 unit of competency every 5 weeks. You are provided with assessment support from your dedicated Trainer assigned to you for the duration of your studies.
Upon enrolment you will be provided with an Assessment Plan recommending the dates to complete your assessments over the duration of your course, and all information relating to your qualification.
The recommended hours consists of an average maximum of 60 hours per unit of competency for Certificate IV Qualifications, and a maximum of 90 hours per unit of competency for the Diploma Qualification. These hours are based on participants who have NO, or very little industry experience or knowledge of the practices required for the qualification. These hours will vary per unit you complete, covering all reading required, completion of assessment activities, and project work to be completed. The hours recommended will depend upon your current skills, knowledge, and experience, and can potentially be reduced based on this. The recommended hours do not take into consideration any potential recognition of prior learning (RPL) that may be potentially awarded based on your current skills, knowledge, and experience. If you believe that you would be a suitable candidate for potential RPL, please contact our office and we will be able to assist you further.
