Online vocational training is best experienced when it is obtained from a Registered Training Organization (RTO), particularly because of the quality of education the RTO can be expected to provide.

1. Why Choose RTOs for Online
Vocational Training

2. Anybody who is too busy to show up in a classroom setting and acquire a vocational
training can now obtain a certificate or a diploma via online correspondence. With the
apparent simplicity of this educational solution comes the student’s responsibility in
choosing which training provider to get education from. If the same student wants a
nationally accredited training, then he must consider it a major criterion for the training
provider to be an RTO and hence, an AVETMISS compliant.
So what is an RTO? RTO stands for Registered Training Organization. Basically, RTOs are
the VET (Vocational Education and Training) providers which have passed the national
regulatory standards for the provision of vocational education. The country has
particularly provided for the national regulation of VET providers in certain legislative
acts. The ASQA or the Australian Skills Quality Authority is then the body made
responsible for such regulation among most regional territories in Australia.
So, why should one choose an RTO, even for just an online vocational training? Actually,
the answers can be summed up in one word: quality. Indeed, once a VET provider is a
certified RTO, and once its courses are all nationally accredited, then you will know that
that provider is able to give the student high quality training. Specifically, an RTO is
preferred when it comes to providing online vocational education because:
1. It operates through learning management systems that ensure data accuracy
and database security, protecting your enrolment information, as well as your
training performance and grades. Such systems may also provide you with
user-friendly front-end interface that may assist you in arranging your class
schedules, project deadlines and examination dates;
2. It submits data through the NCVER validation software, preserving a national
consistency in formatting and ensuring that the national data is updated to
include you in the list of ASQA-certified graduates of VETs with nationally-
recognized competencies. In connection to this, the RTO is also assured of
complying to the AVETMISS; and
3. It makes itself a qualified recipient of scholarship grants from the national
government.

3. When the VET provider is an RTO, especially one of which the courses are also
accredited by the ASQA, it has then the potential of being able to take for its
worthy students the position of being a funding grantee. This means that you
as the student can directly apply to the head of that RTO for the funding.
Then, when you will have passed the requirements through the assessment of
the RTO-grantee, you become the happy recipient of the scholarship.
So that’s just how an RTO makes your online vocational training worth the experience.
