Note to Employers on Individually Structured Training

As an employer considering Training Visa 407, training needs analysis is recommended.

Training should be structured to the training needs of the nominee. Training needs analysis and program proposal should be prepared for nomination application.

Program Proposal should include:

  • Objectives, tasks and timeframes;
  • Delineate practical work activities and instruction and/or observation;
  • Assessment of nominated trainee’s present skill level;
  • Definition of milestones and target skill development;
  • Provide details of appropriately qualified and experienced supervisors (trainers, assessors, etc);
  • Anticipated skills development for the Training Visa 407 holder.

The tasks actually performed should be consistent with program objectives.

The timeframes for completion of tasks needs to be clear. However, it is advisable to indicate an increase in difficulty and complexity over time.

Show in particular who the trainee will progress to a higher level skills capability.

When providing details of supervisor, qualifications and certifications should be explained. Career experience as someone with 'specialised knowledge' and experience in the subject area, would ideally be accompanied with a resume.

Supervisor-to-trainee ratio should be addressed in the training plan. Individualised training is the key, so ensure that this is clearly explained.

The training proposal should indicate mechanisms for monitoring and assessment. The program does not need to result in formal qualification, however assessment of skills development is important.

Details of qualifications, if awarded, after completion of training should be indicated.

 

The training programme should also outline who will deliver any ‘off the job’ training.
