SWQ Training Pty Ltd RTO No. 32199

Course Guide

V 1.3 January 2015

SWQ Training Pty Ltd is a nationally Registered Training Organisation (RTO). The benefit of training

with a RTO is that you are assured of quality training. An RTO must provide a documented quality system

covering all training, assessment and services. As an RTO we comply with all requirements of the licensing

authority.

Upon successful completion of one of our training courses we will issue you with a nationally recognised

Statement of Attainment or Certificate.

What we offer our Students

We employ qualified Trainers and Assessors who also have industry qualifications equivalent or higher than

the qualification delivered and assessed. They also have years of industry experience. All of our trainers are

friendly and approachable whilst maintaining a professional manner.

Flexible Learning and Assessment procedures

Some components of our courses are delivered in training room group sessions with set timeframes. There is

flexibility to adjust the training mode to accommodate some diverse learning arrangements. If you have a

situation which requires some delivery or assessment methods to be modified to suit your circumstances,

please discuss these with the administration officer or trainer. All reasonable adjustments will be considered by

SWQ Training.

Training Options

We offer Part time/Full time training programs.

Full time training – full certificate courses

Full time courses are offered as work based training (on-the-job). Participants in this mode of training are

employed and work full time. They complete an apprenticeship or traineeship and do work based training and

assessment activities under an experienced qualified supervisor. A trainer/assessor from SWQ Training visits

the work place on a regular basis (usually 4-6 weeks) to monitor the apprentice’s/trainee’s progress and to

deliver training and assessment activities to the apprentice/trainee. The apprentice/trainee may need to attend

block training sessions off the job for some of the units of competency. This is stipulated on the training plan at

commencement of the course. RII30813 Certificate III in Civil Construction Plant Operations is nominally 36

months in duration, RII30913 Certificate III in Civil construction (Road Construction and Maintenance) is

nominally 36 months in duration, CPC30511 Certificate III in Dogging is nominally 24 months in duration and

CPC30711 Certificate III in Rigging is nominally 24 months in duration. The Queensland User Choice

Program funds preferred suppliers (RTO’s) for the provision of services to eligible apprentices/trainees.

Part time

This study options allow students to hold full time employment. It applies particularly to participants who are

completing the High Risk Licencing units of competency or to participants who may only complete one or two

units of competency as partial completion of the full certificate. Participants attend block training at pre-

determined times and then complete workplace training activities under an experienced licenced/qualified

supervisor. These activities are documented in the Student Log Book. All machine/equipment/plant operating

hours completed in the workplace are logged into this book as evidence for assessment.

Entry requirements –

There are no entry requirements to the training programs/courses.

V 1.3 January 2015

Other requirements of students: Students require the necessary Foundation Skills such as: learning, oral

and written language, writing and numeracy skill appropriate to the working environment and the ability to

read and follow instructions in work manuals and procedures and in other relevant workplace information such

as signs and machine operating manuals. Students need to be able to develop the necessary numeracy skills to

carry out workplace calculations such as calculate weights and measures and carry out calculations required to

competently use certain machinery and equipment. On enrolment SWQ Training identify any particular

learning, oral and written language, writing and numeracy needs of the student so assistance can be provided or

referral given to a relevant organization or agency.

Unique Student identifier (USI)

From 1st January 2015 all RTOs are required under legislation to collect and verify USI for each student prior

to issuing a qualification or statement of attainment and to include the USI in the returns to the National VET

Data collection. Although the onus is on the student to obtain a USI however SWQ Training as an RTO will

assist students in this process.

Steps to follow:

1. SWQ Training can create this for you: - Please complete our enrolment form and bring two (2) forms of

identification to course enrolment.

2. If you already have your USI then bring this along to course enrolment.

3. If you would like to create your own USI, you can do so by visiting www.usi.gov.au and follow the

prompts. Then bring your USI to course enrolment.

4. You will also be asked to give a preferred contact method, either an email, text message or postal address on

your enrolment form.

Types of accepted identification:

Driver’s Licence

Medicare Card

Australian Passport

Visa-(with Non-Australian Passport) for REFUGEES ONLY

Birth Certificate (Australian)

Certificate Of Registration By Descent

Citizenship Certificate

Immi Card

IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU KEEP YOUR USI.

V 1.3 January 2015

Training Fees

Course fees are outlined on the sheets listing the units of competency for each qualification offered. At the

initial interview/contact a final course fee is determined depending on the individual candidate’s previous

training and experience. There is an administration fee of $65 per course payable on application and prior to

starting the course. This fee confirms enrolment. This is non-refundable. A deposit of no more than $1000 is

paid upon commencement. A payment plan agreement is entered into upon enrolment to pay the remaining

fees. At no time does SWQ Training accept more than $1,500 for fees paid in advance. All monies owing must

be paid by completion of course and before the Certificate/Statement of Attainment is issued. The

administration fee is withheld if a cancellation or suspension or transfer of course occurs. A

Suspension/Cancellation/ Transfer Application Form must be completed and submitted so payment plans and

course training plan can be altered. All final decisions are made by Director if extreme circumstances are

involved. Payment Plans are legal binding contracts and defaults will be dealt with accordingly. Payments are

for course study (Training and Assessment) not for the issue of the certificate. Certificates are not issued until

final payment has been received by the training organization. They are issued within the regulated timeframe of

30 days after marking of all assessments. Additional fees are charged for ‘resit’ assessments and/or training for

students who are not yet competent on completion of the training course. These fees are discussed and agreed

upon in consultation with the Director. A resit /challenge test is quoted on application.

Refunds and Cancellations

We recognize that students may change their desire to pursue a career in the Construction and Infrastructure

and Resources Industries and therefore we have developed a refund policy to meet such contingencies.

If the student/third party cancels a course booking prior to commencement of the training course the following

charges will apply:

7 or more working days notification; Nil course fees apply, as long as all course materials, learner

guides are returned to SWQ Training.

3 - 6 days notification before start date; cancellation charges equal to 50% of quoted course fees

will be retained / payable. These will be at the discretion of the Manager given the circumstances

of each individual cancellation

Less than 3 working days before start date; full course fees will be retained / payable. These will

be at the discretion of the Manager given the circumstances of each individual cancellation

If a student withdraws from the course once it has commenced, course fees are payable in full, no refund will

be given. Deposit and any monies paid are non-refundable.

Under extreme circumstances this may be reviewed but decision is with administration on advice by director.

If SWQ Training Pty Ltd cancels a training course prior to commencement then all fees and charges already

paid to SWQ Training Pty Ltd will be refunded to the student/business in FULL.

SWQ Training Pty Ltd guarantees that once a course has commenced that student will not be disadvantaged in

the unlikely event that the RTO Registering Body has rescinded the registration for that particular course/unit.

Cancelling the registration of a course/unit can happen for a number of reasons. One such reason would be the

RTO couldn’t provide sufficient evidence that the course/unit structure meets strict guidelines.

If for any reason the course/unit is cancelled by an outside agency SWQ Training will make every effort to

have those students enrolled in that particular course/unit deferred until a solution is met between all parties or

alternatively will refund monies paid and assist the student in enrolling with another RTO with that same scope

of registration.

V 1.3 January 2015

Protective Equipment (PPE) must be worn at all times students are undertaking workplace training or

assessment.

Managing Issues / Concerns

SWQ Training Pty Ltd at all times endeavours to develop a positive and constructive relationship with all

students however there are times when particular issues arise which need to be dealt with. These occasions can

include:

1. Times when the student is not progressing according to her/his training plan. This may occur because:

The student has not attended the scheduled training/assessment sessions

The student has not submitted/attended the assessment on the due date

The student has not achieved competency

2. Times when students do not act in an appropriate manner. This may include but not limited to;

Use of inappropriate language

Unsuitable or inappropriate clothing (not wearing PPE)

Discrimination against other students

Harassment of other students

Attending training/assessment activities whilst under the influence of alcohol/illegal substances

Or not abiding by any of the specified House Rules and Regulations

In these cases and in other identified occasions, SWQ Training Pty Ltd will:

Initially discuss the issue/situation with the student with the express purpose of resolving the issue to

allow the student to make the required progress and to comply with the acceptable standards identified

by the training organization. The student may be given a first warning at this stage.

Involve other parties in the resolution of the issue if an acceptable solution is not agreed upon and

implemented after the initial discussion. This may involve the relevant State government department,

(Department of Training and Education) and ACC representative (the Australian Apprenticeship

Centre if the student is on a traineeship/apprenticeship).

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)

This process is fully explained at the initial enrolment day. In brief it is an assessment of a student’s current

skills & knowledge gained through formal or informal learning such as: life experiences, education, work

experience or previous training. You can apply for a whole unit of competency or you may negotiate for a full

or part of a Qualification. Proof of prior training undertaken needs to be verified by original or certified copies

of certificates. Candidates are to meet every performance criteria and knowledge and skills to be deemed

competent in any full unit of competency or qualification. You may be able to accelerate completion of the

qualification through the RPL process. Any gaps identified will require training.

An RPL Application form must be filled out prior to course commencement and then the candidate will receive

an RPL Assessment book to be completed for the units of competency they feel they are currently competent

in. This assessment will include challenge test of knowledge. A skills (practical) assessment may be arranged

upon request if the assessor believes inadequate evidence of prior training and experience has been provided. A

report is generated, results are discussed with candidate and the training plan is drawn up to complete your

qualifications. Any student applying for RPL for load shifting or crane courses should be aware that it is a

mandatory requirement that all applicants must undertake a challenge test which comprises the theory and

practical assessments set by WHSQ. RPL will only be applied to the experience and hours required for

operating High Risk machine/equipment. Application forms are available from the trainer.

Privacy

Staff at SWQ Training will ensure that the strict security provisions relating to your personal details are not

compromised. Your privacy is assured and any communications between you and our staff will be held in the

utmost of confidence. SWQ Training Pty Ltd is committed to complying with privacy legislation at all times.

All students and staff must also respect the privacy of others. This means that:

Students can request to see their own file only

Student information is not divulged to any other person except to authorized personnel (legal guardian if

student is under 18, trainers/assessors, government department personnel, internal and external auditors)

Students may give written signed permission to allow a third party to view their file on their behalf.

All information is stored in a safe and secure cabinet and is not released without your permission. Legislative,

contractual and compliance audit processes are the exception. No photos or comments made by students or

employers are not to be used without written permission. The file may be assessed by trainers/assessors only

for progress training information. Training records are released to the trainer/ assessor and returned after use.

Overview of the training programs offered by SWQ Training

FULL Certificate courses

These courses include:

o CPC30511 Certificate III in Dogging

o CPC30711 Certificate III in Rigging

o RII30813 Certificate III in Civil Construction Plant Operations

o RII30913 Certificate III in Civil Construction(Road Construction and Maintenance)

These training courses cover all the units of competency required for a worker to competently work in the

construction, and infrastructure and resources industries to the standard required of the industry. On successful

completion the student is issued with a Certificate.

CPCCOHS1001A Work safely in the construction industry has been developed in consultation with by

the Construction and Property Services Industry Skills Council to support people in the construction industry

who are seeking assessment against the unit of competency. The unit supports the national implementation of

the Construction OHS Induction Training Program which is underpinned by the Australian Safety and

Compensation Council’s National Code of Practice for Induction Training for Construction Work (ASCC

2006).

Topics covered by the CPCCOHS1001A Work safely in the construction industry course include:

Basic information on the relevant Commonwealth, state and territory OHS legislative and safety requirements

for construction work including duty of care, common construction hazards and basic procedures for the

assessment of risk and application of the hierarchy of control, OHS communication processes, information

and documentation including the role of OHS committees and representatives, the meaning of common safety

signs and symbols, and procedures for reporting hazards, incidents and injuries, procedures for responding to

incidents and emergencies including evacuation, first aid, fire safety equipment and Personal Protective

Equipment (PPE).

High Risk Loadshifting and Crane units of competency training courses

Training and assessment leading to licenses for prescribed occupations (Operation of loadshifting equipment)

is limited to those trainers and assessors who are accredited assessors through the Department of Work health

and Safety Queensland. In line with the new Harmonised WH&S Act SWQ Training Pty Ltd has changed over

to the mandatory national units of competency for the High Risk Outcomes from the Transport & Logistics

Training Package (TLI), the Construction, Plumbing and Services Training Package (CPC).

Before a Statement of Attainment can be issued by the RTO the student must undertake specific on-the-job

training in a work environment or replicated/simulated industrial work environment and undertake a

mandatory assessment. The period of on-the-job training ranges from 40 – 100 hours depending on the unit of

competency.

For each class of license there are three types of assessment you must undertake. A closed book knowledge

assessment, a practical assessment of your skills and an account of the hours and experience logged in the log

book.

As you complete each of the assessments, you will be given feedback from the assessor. The feedback is

designed to give you information about what you did competently as well as the areas in which you could

make improvements which will ultimately make you a better, safer operator.

V 1.3 January 2015

Successful applicants will still receive a Statement of Attainment (issued by SWQ Training Pty Ltd) and you

may be eligible to apply for a Licence (issued by WH&S Q’LD).

Getting your license

You will be required to maintain a training log book provided by the RTO or similar record of the experience

you have acquired.

After undertaking the appropriate training and you have received on the job experience, the RTO will arrange

the assessment.

You will be required to provide evidence of your identity (usually a driver's license) to the RTO.

After successfully completing the theory and practical assessments, you will be given a statement of attainment

(result of the course) and an Assessment Summary Sheet.

Applications for High Risk Work Licence will have to be lodged by applicant to Australia Post. The current

cost is $79.70 plus cost of photo. The Accredited Assessor will give you full instructions on how to make

application.

You should keep copies of all paperwork given to you by the RTO.
