Thank you to everybody who provided feedback on the draft of units of competency, skill sets and qualifications. All feedback from industry has been collated and considered, along with input from the project’s Technical Advisory Committee. The final draft units, skill sets and qualifications are now available for industry validation.

Validation means checking or proving that something is logically and factually accurate. We are seeking your views on whether current racing integrity and animal welfare for greyhounds has been incorporated into the following units of competency, skill sets and qualifications. The consultation period for this Validation stage of the project will be open until Sunday, 4 June.

We have summarised the feedback and how it has been considered and incorporated into the relevant units, qualifications and skill sets. This information can be viewed when clicking the validation form on the project webpage.

You are welcome to provide validation on as many of the final draft units, skill sets and qualifications as you would like. Please also feel free to share the final drafts with others who may be interested in providing validation.

Once industry has validated the final drafts they will be forwarded to the Racing Industry Reference Committees (IRC) for sign off. After final quality assurance of the drafts, they will be submitted to the Australian Industry and Skills Committee (AISC) to consider and approve for publication on training.gov.au.
