Initial Registration

To ensure that training organisations seeking initial registration with NARA are properly prepared for a NARA audit, NARA requires all applicants to engage the services of a NARA-approved Quality Consultant.

Once the Quality Consultant is confident that the applicant is ready for audit, he/she will provide formal confirmation of this to the relevant NARA Client Relationship Manager, who will then assign an independent Lead Auditor to undertake the applicant’s initial audit.

Existing RTOs

Existing RTOs registered with NARA seeking re-registration or major changes to scope of registration must use a NARA-endorsed Quality Consultant in preparation for audit.

However existing RTOs seeking to add qualifications or units of competence from Training Packages they already have experience with will not be required to use the services of a Quality Consultant prior to audit.

Note:

The list of NARA-approved Quality Consultants comprises consultants who successfully met the 2007 TVET Australia tender specifications for NARA Auditors and NARA-approved Quality Consultants.

Many of the consultants on our list offers other private consultancy services to RTOs and VET stakeholders who are not seeking registration with NARA. In those circumstances, NARA has no role or obligations in relation to any of the services that the consultants provide.
