Aims and Objectives of ERTOA
The aim of the association is to provide member enterprises, whose
principle business is not education and training, with a formal organisation
that is both supportive and representative of their interests as Registered Training
Organisations (RTO). The proposed association will:
Support and assist the member
enterprise RTOs and their staff to operate effectively and efficiently by enabling
members to:
- seek advice, exchange ideas
and experiences with colleagues from other organisations on all aspects of setting-up
and running an enterprise RTO;
- participate in regular meetings with colleagues
from other enterprises to discuss issues of concern, exchange ideas and give
and take advice; and
- participate in, and contribute to an association that has
a mandate to commission and publish research on specific issues facing enterprise
RTOs.
Provide formal representation and promote the interests of member enterprise
RTOs by:
- interacting as an association, and in a coordinated way, with State Training
Authorities, Industry Skills Councils, Department of Education Science and Technology
and other Vocational and Technical Education (VTE) players, on the issues faced
by enterprise RTOs in order to promote greater recognition of enterprise RTO
activities and interests;
- participating as a formal association with a ‘seat at the table’ whenever
discussions occur, and decisions are made, affecting enterprise RTOs; and
- influencing
the Australian VTE sector regarding enterprise RTO issues and interests.
