Upcoming Professional Development opportunities with Accellier

 

Learning as a Core Skill

When: Thursday 19 February 2026, 12:00 pm NSW time (60 minutes)

Cost: Free Book Now

In this Professional Development webinar, LLN specialist Jasmin Quirk will help you take a closer look at the Core Skill of Learning, particularly for Vocational Education and Training (VET) students.

While issues with reading, writing, or numeracy are often easy to spot, challenges with the core skill of Learning can be far more subtle, and can quietly undermine a student’s ability to stay engaged, manage study demands, and ultimately complete their course or continue their learning in the workplace.

Based on the ACSF and CSfW, we’ll explore:

  1. What does the core skill of learning actually look like in the classroom and the workplace?
  2. Why students quite capable in other areas of LLN may struggle in the workplace or fail to finish a course when learning skills are underdeveloped or unsupported.
  3. How consciously recognising the facets of this “silent need” can lead to timely, effective support and simple strategies that see successful outcomes for everyone.

About our VET PD Program

The Standards for RTOs suggest that trainers at Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) or TAFE should engage in regular professional development in vocational training and learning.

the RTO’s training and assessment is delivered only by persons who have […] current knowledge and skills in vocational training and learning that informs their training and assessment.The Standards for RTOs

Like renewing annual insurance or a visit to the dentist, VET professional development is one of those things that trainers often put off. And no wonder, some of it is dreadfully dull and provides little in the way of usable strategies trainers can apply in their practice.

Get up to date with your VET PD the Accellier way

Strangely, most PD opportunities are provided by non-RTOs. We think RTOs need to demonstrate leadership in professional development. Accellier, a leading TAE provider, is extremely well resourced with an incredible team of skilled professionals who are keen to share their latest research, practices and findings from experiments with you.
