4Suspension of trainers / assessors#

Transport and Main Roads may, at its discretion, suspend an individual trainer / assessor from delivering and assessing the approved programs. This may be done where there is reasonable evidence that a trainer does not meet the department's required technical or ethical standards. Suspension may be permanent, or conditional on successful completion of an approved remediation program. Suspension applies to the individual trainer, not to their employing RTO.

An RTO employing a suspended trainer (with the trainer's agreement) may propose remediation processes to the department. If approved and completed to the department's satisfaction, the suspension will be removed.

Suspension of an individual may not affect the RTO's licence if it is evident that the individual's actions are not in accordance with the RTO's quality processes. Names of suspended individuals will be made available to relevant Transport and Main Roads personnel.
