Since the first training package was endorsed in 1997, industry, society, and the vocational education and training (VET) sector have changed markedly. While training packages were continuously updated and improved, they have now undergone a high level review to see how they, and the structures supporting them, can be improved to strengthen teaching and learning to better meet current and future skill needs. This high level review: researched changes in the world of work and learning in which training packages operate; analysed the way training packages are implemented 'on the ground', including the support materials and professional development available to teachers and trainers, and how well the development and inbuilt review processes work; and has made recommendations for improvements to the training packages model and the systems and structures that support them. This paper is one of eight working papers that were drafted as part of the third phase of the review. It explores the relationship between training packages and teaching, learning and assessment. The contents are: Relationship between training packages and teaching, learning and assessment; Supporting quality teaching, learning and assessment.
