Can an RTO enrol an overseas visitor into a course and not be CRICOS registered?

In some cases, registered training organisations (RTOs) may enrol students who are temporarily visiting Australia on certain visas, other than study visas. However, some visas include restrictions on training. Further information is also available from the Department of Home Affairs.

Registered training providers are able to offer exempt supplementary courses to overseas students without registering the courses on CRICOS. Exempt courses includes first aid, infection control, construction white cards, and responsible service of alcohol courses. More information.
