Change RTO scope | Add training products
Your scope of registration is the training package qualifications, accredited courses and units of competency that your registered training organisation (RTO) is approved to deliver.
You need to apply and get approval from ASQA to add to your scope of registration.
Standards for RTOs
You should be confident that you meet the Standards for RTOs for the training products you plan to offer before applying to extend your scope of registration.
This includes ensuring you have access to the required resources, facilities and equipment, outlined in the training package or accredited course before you submit your application.
When you submit your application, you are declaring that you’re ready to deliver. If you're still developing delivery materials, sourcing or preparing resources, you should delay your application.
Learn more about the Standards:
- Users’ guide to the Standards for RTOs 2015
- Resourcing requirements—for applicants seeking initial registration or change of scope of registration.
Evidence requirements to add items to your registration scope
You need to submit evidence with your add to scope application:
- for certain training products that lead to a licence outcome
- for accredited courses
- if you’re applying to add certain training products from the Training and Education (TAE) Training Package.
We may also ask you for additional evidence during your application assessment.
Some VET qualifications entitle graduates to apply for a licence or an occupational outcome.
Providers need to get approval from the relevant industry regulator and submit the evidence to ASQA to add certain products to their scope of registration.
Learn more about other licensing and registration requirements and which training products these apply to.
You need to provide evidence the course owner has given you permission to add an accredited course to your scope.
The national register identifies course owners for each accredited course.
To add certain training products from the Training and Education (TAE) Training Package, you’ll need to provide a range of additional evidence with your application.
You must be registered for at least 2 years to be eligible to apply for certain training products from the TAE Training Package.
Find out more about the evidence required and which training products these apply to.
Fees to add training products to scope of registration
A lodgement fee is payable for change to scope applications.
You’ll receive an invoice as soon as you submit your change of scope application which needs to be paid before your application is assessed.

Newly registered RTOs
Newly registered RTOs are not permitted to apply to add training products to their approved scope until they have been registered for a period of 24 months or more.
This is to ensure new RTOs focus on providing quality training and assessment for the products they are initially approved to deliver, and so that ASQA may ensure that the RTO has demonstrated understanding of the educational integrity and commitment required to operate in the VET sector prior to expanding its course offerings.
