This design model is for a training package and its companion volume, whose component parts reflect the key features of a streamlined product. The streamlined design model is based on a set of objectives and guidelines, and draws on a combination of existing principles, current thinking and practice, user input, and identified opportunities for improvement. Together, the aims and guidelines embody recommendations 16 and 17 of the [vocational education and training] 'VET products for the 21st century' report. They are intended to complement the existing quality principles that underpin the training package development and endorsement process. The objectives and guidelines have been debated and refined during the development of the design model and are the primary outcome of a project commissioned by TVET Australia, as project managers of the National Quality Council's (NQC) 'VET products for the 21st century' project. Their purpose is to separate performance standards from guidance and supporting information, as well as to simplify, shorten and segment the contents of current training packages to make them more fit for purpose.
