SkillsIQ, under the direction of the Sport, Fitness and Recreation Industry Reference Committee (IRC), is undertaking a thorough review of all Equine-related units of competency within the Sport, Fitness and Recreation Training Package. Note that this is a separate project to the Equine Safety and Training Project that Skills Impact is managing on behalf of the Racing IRC.
A key and significant focus of this review work will be addressing recommendations made within the ASQA strategic review, Training in equine programs in Australia.
Draft equine units of competency and associated assessment requirements are now available for public consultation from 22nd May to 16th June 2017.
A series of industry feedback forums and webinars are being held to discuss the drafts and provide feedback. For more information please contact Liz Horne, Skills Engagement Specialist at SkillsIQ, [email protected].
