<p>I'm not quite sure what the query on this VET-IT issue is. The way I see it, the ICA11 package is now available and the units in it should be the ones we therefore plan for and present the content from. It is noticeable that some units now have a 'C' designation
on them and/or additional or more detailed elements & performance criteria. Correspondingly the critical aspects and kk /ks in some cases have also been upgraded by the new training package.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Also worth noting is that training.com.au now also contains word format documents which makes the task of creating some assessment tools a real joy! (modifying the pdf's was a pain!)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>My RTO gave all the current package info to me for this year plus, I make it my duty to ensure I regularly check the site for any content updates.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>On the down side, VET-IT Cert III at this point will not be offered here after 2012 due to the LARGE range of other subject offerings more attractive to the demographic of this region. BUT, I will try to change that thinking next year...hmmmm..just working
on that plan just now...</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Having just glanced though the new training for VET IT (ICA11 – Certificate II and III Info, Digital Media and Technology) am wondering if anyone on this list knows of the state of play for the new training package. When it is going to
be introduced by the VCAA and what is the likely profile of the new course?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
