This report is the second of two reports on the evaluation of the New South Wales (NSW) Australian Vocational Training System (AVTS) Professional Development 1995 Program. The program is part of a national strategy to facilitate the introduction of the AVTS through the development of the skills and knowledge that trainers from industry and training institutions will need to implement the AVTS. The evaluation was undertaken by David Rumsey and Associates for the NSW Board of Vocational Education and Training (BVET) and surveyed participants and project managers involved in the 1995 projects of the program. The evaluation sought to assess the value and impact of the program and to gather feedback on how the professional development projects could be improved for future participants. This supplementary report updates the March 1996 report. It contains a further three case studies providing in-depth analysis of project achievements, impact and issues, and a synthesis of outcomes from the evaluation of the 1995 program and an evaluation of the 1994 program. Appendices include an updated summary of the 19 projects in the 1995 program, an additional three case studies, and updates on participants and consultation.
