TQS Rule Change

Are you keeping up with the TQS rule changes?

The employer validation element was removed from July 1st.

Conditional certification remains but there is some new guidance about what conditional certification means.

There is also some additional guidance about A5.2.

Training Quality Standard: A 5.2: Technical Note is worth downloading and reading carefully.

What is the impact of these TQS changes?

Well, my customers who worked hard to get their applications in before June 30th are all trying to work out if they made a wise choice.

In all cases we've been working through the new regulations and seeking clarification about specifics.

The answer to the question about the timing of the submission has to be that most people are not really sure whether it's better to be classifed as a June 30th submission or a July 1st submission.

We'll all have to wait a while to find out if people have made the right choice when they sent off their completed applications on June 30th.
