Determining Nominal Hours

Nominal Hours may be determined through a number of sources which may be either Nationally or State/Tertitory derived. Some examples and links have been included below:

These documents list a range of nominal hours for each accredited Unit of Competency (module) within training packages and/or nominal hours for full nationally accredited Qualifications. RTO's can used these documents to determine the appropriate nominal hours for their modules and qualifications.

There are likely to be other State/Teritory documents similar to the ones listed above, please look for the document most relevant to your training location or use the NCVER document.
