Training Packages
The national system of qualifications in Australia helps people get the skills and knowledge needed for work and includes higher education, vocational education and training, and schools.
Australia has a system of qualifications called the Australian Qualification Framework (AQF). The AQF ensure national recognition and consistency and common understanding across Australia, of what defines each qualification.
There are 10 levels of qualifications ranging from Certificate I through to Doctoral Degree. See the Australian Qualification Framework for more information on the qualification system in Australia.

Training Packages are sets of nationally endorsed standards and qualifications for recognising and assessing people's skills. They set a national industry standard for skills, and are used as the basis for most of the programs delivered in the vocational education and training system, including New Apprenticeships , training courses, VET in schools programs, recognition of existing skills, and occupational licensing.
Training Packages are national products, which means that qualifications delivered and assessed in one state or territory are recognised across Australia. Training Packages are developed with industry, so they hold national recognition, and are not owned by an individual training provider. Only Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) are able to issue Training Package qualifications or statements of attainment. The national database of Training Packages, Qualifications, Units of Competency, Skill Sets and Accredited Courses can be found at: http://training.gov.au/

Jobs and Skills Councils
Training packages are part of an industry-driven system, which is designed to make sure that individuals trained under the system hold the skills and knowledge that employers need. They are reviewed on an ongoing basis, to ensure that they keep pace with the rapid changes that are occurring in the Australian workforce. From July 1 2023 Training package development and review falls under the remit of Jobs and Skills Councils.
