The Guidelines
The Guidelines for the establishment and variation of apprenticeships provide information on the submission process for the classification of prescribed vocational education and training (VET) qualifications. They are in accordance with Section 60C of the Vocational Education and Training Act 1996 (the Act) in WA.
The guidelines outline how the process is managed to ensure that:
- the WA State Training Board provides advice and recommendations to the Minister for Training and Workforce Development in accordance with Section 60C of the Act;
- the Board meets its obligations under Regulations 36 and 37 of the Vocational Education and Training (General) Regulations 2009 (VET Regulations); and
- the WA industry training councils meet requirements under Sections 21(1)(b) and (c) of the Act.

It also assists proponents and industry training councils in the development of a proposal.
