Thanks to the contributions of everyone involved, the projects for 2020-21 have all moved into the finalisation stage, which involves checking the draft qualifications and skills standards and making any final adjustments. Soon a broad range of industry sectors will be able to access these updated skills standards, supporting learners and industry as a whole to gain the skills they need.

As part of the finalisation process, the draft documents for each project undergo an edit and equity and quality assurance process, including being reviewed by the state training authorities (STAs). After which they are forwarded to the Australian Industry and Skills Committee (AISC) and State and Territory Ministers for consideration and endorsement. Once endorsed, the updated skills standards will be published on the National Training Register (training.gov.au).
