Thanks, I saw it as well, but can't find the Training Package (although it
can be purchased from IBSA for I think $300).
My big concern with a lot of the new qualifications is that they are
becoming larger and larger and hence students are now not able to fully
complete the qualifications at VCE VET level i.e. Retail Operations, Cert
III IT, Cert III Sport and Rec, Cert III Business, potentially Multimedia
now, unfortunately students are now going to be leaving at the end of Year
12 with partially completed qualifications and very few options to complete
them. I have spoken to a couple of TAFE's and none of them have given
thought to providing any pathway to VCE students to complete qualifications
from Year 12.
Kind regards

I found this, which lists what happened to each unit
of competency:

Interesting - looks to me like they've tried to make
the qualifications a lot more broader.
