Frequently Asked Questions

Who needs a TAE qualification in Australia?

A TAE qualification is required for anyone delivering or assessing nationally recognised training through a Registered Training Organisation (RTO) in Australia. This includes trainers, assessors, workplace trainers, and industry professionals moving into the VET sector.

If you’re delivering nationally accredited training within an RTO, yes – the TAE40122 is a legal requirement under the Standards for RTOs 2015. For non-accredited, internal workplace training you may not need it, but it’s strongly recommended and will significantly improve your effectiveness as a trainer.

TAE40116 is still accepted by most RTOs, but the new standard is TAE40122. Many employers now require the upgraded qualification, and ASQA compliance expectations are moving toward TAE40122. Learn TAE offers a fast, streamlined upgrade pathway.

With our streamlined face-to-face delivery, you can complete in-person or virtual workshops over 20 days (4 weeks). Self-paced online learners typically take up to 6 months. The timeline depends on your chosen delivery mode & how quickly you complete your workplace assessment components (Students are given up to 12 months to complete the full qualification).

You need vocational competency in the area you intend to train in – meaning real-world industry experience. There are no formal academic prerequisites, but you’ll need to demonstrate current skills and knowledge in your chosen field.
Yes. TAE40122 is a nationally accredited qualification on the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF), meaning it is recognised and accepted by all RTOs, employers, and regulatory bodies across every state and territory in Australia.

We offer 4 flexible pathways: Streamlined Face-to-Face (4 weeks at our Cannon Hill venue), Self-Paced Pay As You Go (complete units in your own time), Virtual Online Learning (join interactive virtual classrooms), and our Express Trainer Mentoring Program (expert guidance from day one).
