ABOUT YOUR TRAINER
1 Education has engaged specialist Trainers for this program who are very experienced in working with people to prepare to engage with the workforce for the first time, or perhaps need to build confidence and refresh their skills to re-engage in the learning and work environments.

QUALIFICATION AND ACCREDITATION OUTCOMES
On successful completion of this program, you will be awarded a nationally recognised qualification ‘Certificate II in Skills for Work and Vocational Pathways’ (FSK20119), issued by 1 Education (RTO #6639).
Alternatively, if you decide to complete only part of the qualification, you will still receive a Statement of Attainment to formalise your competencies achieved.
Graduates of this program will be ready and able to embark on their Certificate III level program with confidence that their underlying foundation skills will not be a barrier to their learning.
POTENTIAL JOB OUTCOMES
This qualification is not designed as a direct pathway to employment, but rather is intended to prepare students for further studies in a Certificate 3 level vocational pathway.
COURSE FORMAT, STUDY MODE AND COURSE DURATION
Course participants will be given classroom tutorials, as well as group and individual activities to develop their skills and confidence in any areas identified during their initial gap assessment at the time of enrolment.
The (full) course will be embedded within the start and finish dates of your Certificate III in Hospitality. All units will be completed over a period of 4 weeks.
Following the program students will continue to have access to their Trainer or another 1 Education Trainer to assist their where needed at any stage during their Certificate 3 level studies.
ENTRY REQUIREMENTS / MINIMUM AGE
There are no specific entry requirements for this course, however students must be able to read basic texts and be able to communicate with their Trainer in English to enable learning to occur. If candidates are under 18 their enrolment form must be signed by a parent or guardian.
LOCATION…
This program, including any group sessions, workshops and individual sessions, will be facilitated in a fully equipped hospitality venue, located either on the Gold Coast and in Brisbane, on the same premises as the Certificate 3 you will proceed on to.
RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNING (RPL) AND CREDIT TRANSFER
All 1 Education students are provided with an opportunity to claim any advanced credit for their past studies or life experiences where that experience overlaps with the subjects contained in the course we are offering.
That said, the target audience for this course will not typically hold many existing competencies and will not be encouraged to pursue Recognition of Prior learning (RPL) for their existing skills and knowledge. The main aim of this program is to deliver only the units of competency needed by the student to increase their likelihood of successfully completing corresponding subjects in the Certificate III in Hospitality and therefore, while some students may be awarded a full qualification, it is not the primary aim of studying these foundation subjects. Where units of competency have been successfully completed with another Registered Training Organisation those subjects will be recognised and credit transfers will be issued.
SUPPORT SERVICES
Your program will be delivered by a team of specialist Trainers who will remain accessible to you for support beyond this training program.
The 1 Education administration team will also remain available to assist you with any non-educational issues not relating specifically to your course content, or in cases where an issue cannot be resolved between you and your Trainer.
Please remember that a detailed step-by-step guide for raising complaints and appealing an assessment decision, has been provided in the 1 Education Student Handbook, made available to you via the 1 Education website.
LANGUAGE LITERACY AND NUMERACY
Participants in this program would have completed an Australian Core Skills Framework (ACSF) assessment prior to their enrolment to identify areas where the student might benefit from further development prior to commencing their Certificate 3 level program.
This process will involve a written activity, followed by an informal conversation or interview with your Assessor. From this process you will receive a personalised Training Plan that includes any foundation subjects, as well as your Certificate 3 program, ensuring that you strengthen any foundation skills where needed prior to commencing their related Certificate 3 subjects.
You will be monitored and supported throughout your studies and will be encouraged to access the open line of communication established with your Trainer throughout your studies.
Further details can be found in the 1 Education Student Handbook or alternatively, contact us for more information.
