Presenter, RTO Assure

Spot Checks are one of the simplest but most powerful quality assurance activities an RTO can undertake. This session will focus on how to implement targeted spot checks within Octossure to identify emerging issues before they become audit findings. We will cover practical examples including trainer files, assessment judgements, student records, AVETMISS data, enrolment evidence and funding compliance checks.
For: Compliance managers, quality leads, operations managers and funding/contracts staff.
