Extended transition period: AVI50215 Diploma of Aviation (Commercial Pilot Licence - Aeroplane) until 12 August 2021

10 December 2020

In some cases, ASQA is empowered to approve transition periods longer than those detailed in Clauses 1.26 (a), (b) and (c) of the Standards for Registered Training Organisations 2015.

In accordance with the General Direction – Learner transition, ASQA will only consider applications for a longer transition period where it can be demonstrated that there would be genuine disadvantage to a cohort of learners if such an extension was not approved.

Where ASQA has approved an extended transition period, that arrangement applies to all RTOs delivering the specific training product to the identified learner cohort (e.g. plumbing apprentices in a specific jurisdiction where the qualification has been superseded), regardless of who made the application.

ASQA has recently approved an extended transition period for AVI50215 Diploma of Aviation (Commercial Pilot Licence - Aeroplane) for RTOs delivering the qualification to learners in Victoria. The extended training, assessment and certification issuance period for this qualification ends on 12 August 2021.

It was demonstrated to ASQA that learners would be genuinely disadvantaged if they were required to transition to the replacement AVI50219 - Diploma of Aviation (Commercial Pilot Licence - Aeroplane) due to the impact of COVID on delivering the practical component of the qualification in Victoria.
