CHC33021 - Training Package Update
SEPTEMBER 2025
HumanAbility is currently reviewing and updating CHC33021– Certificate III in Individualised Support. This will result in a major update to the qualification.
RTOs will have just twelve months to transition students and update all training and assessment resources.
​
Transitioning to the new qualification will require a full review and update of your training and assessment resources, including:
-
Reviewing the updates in detail
-
Updating all training materials and assessments
-
Validating resources to meet the new requirements
-
Managing RPL of current students into the new qualification
This process is time-consuming and can create compliance risks if not done thoroughly. This is where we can help.
What is going to be updated and when?
When will this take place?
