Please note that the Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) listed are provided as a guide only and can be subject to change at any time. The BSA does however strive to ensure that the information contained is as accurate and up-to-date as possible and welcomes feedback from the RTOs where information should be amended or updated. Prospective licence applicants should be aware that it is common that RTOs will notify the BSA that they are delivering a qualification which aligns with a licence class and wish to be included on this website, however, RTOs do not always notify the BSA when they have discontinued delivery of a qualification and therefore should be removed from the website.
Prospective licence applicants should also note that RTOs often choose to offer more than one type of delivery and training and assessment. For example, they could decide to deliver all modes (on-campus/face-to-face/lecture style of delivery, electronic/online/web delivery, Recognition of Prior Learning(RPL) or Upskilling/Gap training). Delivery could be via one mode only, or a combination of all and RTOs will often change their delivery modes depending on demand. The BSA therefore recommends that interested persons make their own enquiries to see if an RTO is delivering the qualification they seek, the cost, duration and the mode of delivery, in order to make the decision of which option suits them best.
