Extended transition period: CPP51119 Diploma of Property (Agency Management)

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 ASQA registered 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the identified learner cohort (e.g., plumbing apprentices in a specific jurisdiction where the qualification has been superseded), regardless of who made the application.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 CPP51119 – Diploma of Property (Agency Management). 

The extended training, assessment, and certification issuance period for CPP51119 – Diploma of Property (Agency Management) ends on 19 April 2024. 

It was demonstrated to ASQA that learners would be genuinely disadvantage if they were required to transition to the replacement qualification as the significance of changes would not provide the expected outcomes for existing learners.
The decision was made with support from the following: 

• State Regulators - Victorian Registration and Qualifications Authority & Training Accreditation Council Western Australia
• State Training Authority from the NSW, ACT, QLD, TAS, VIC and SA
• Artibus Innovation in their role as the Skills Service Organisation
• Strata Community Association, Customer Service NSW, Victorian Building Authority and Property Council of Australia
• Property Services Industry Reference Committee 
• Feedback from RTOs delivering these qualifications. 

The Training Accreditation Council and Victorian Registration and Qualifications Authority will consider extending the transition period for the same training product for TAC or VRQA registered RTOs, where ASQA has approved an extension to transition of training products, to provide consistency across the sector.

The CPP51119 – Diploma of Property (Agency Management) will remain on ASQA registered RTOs scope of registration until the end of the extended transition period unless the RTO chooses to withdraw it from scope prior.
