Under the heading Trained Modules, the modules you initially selected from the enrolment screen will be displayed. These are the modules for which this training event will be recorded. There is the option to revise the proposed end date for each of the modules.

If desired, Select Date, Days, Months or Weeks from the drop down box and then include either a date or a number in the relevant field to represent the revised proposed end date. If the proposed end date does not need to be changed, leave these fields blank.

Additional options available on this page include Add Scheduled Modules, Add Assessed Modules and Add Withdrawn Modules. As each of these events is of the Training Event Type, these can also be added to the current Training Event.

Modules Assessed

Click Save Changes from the I would like to box to save the event.

Modules Withdrawn

To create a Training event to represent Modules Withdrawn, follow the instructions above for the Training Event with the following exceptions:

  • A drop down box under the heading Attended. Select either Did Not Start or Attended as appropriate.
  • A Box under the heading Hours Attended. Enter the number of hours the student attended that module.
Examples
For a student that Did Not Start enter 0 hours.
For a student that attended some training, but did not complete the whole module, you should enter the appropriate figure, proportional to the amount of time spent. For example, if the student attended half of the training and submitted part of the assessment task for grading, you might record half the hours; 15 of 30.
The number of hours recorded should be based on your RTO policies and procedures, as this figure may be used for claiming of funding (when relevant).
