TAFE Directors Australia’s Jenny Dodd reports the present industry engagement system makes updating first aid qualifications (really) difficult

She points to the new Industry Cluster system (CMM December 7 2021) which is supposed to simplify such things and sets a test;

“who will make the practical decisions that are good for students? In the case of first aid there was an easy solution. The new structure asks Industry Clusters to collaborate, but will that be enough to solve these types of problems?”

Once the cluster that oversees first aid is up and running it might want to make answering Ms Dodd’s questions a priority.
