Welcome to Episode 2 of Voices in VET.

In this episode, Rob shares a practical look at the Annual Declaration on Compliance (ADC), and how Allens Training has approached completing it under the new Standards.

Rather than going line by line, this episode focuses on how we’ve answered the declaration in practice. From continuous improvement and compliance systems, to third-party oversight and student support, Rob talks through the thinking behind our responses and what sits behind each declaration.

You’ll also hear key insights from recent ASQA workshops, including what regulators are really looking for, and why clear, practical and genuine responses matter more than ever.

This episode is designed to help RTO leaders understand what they’re signing off on, and how to approach the declaration with confidence and integrity.
