To achieve this qualification nine units must be completed of which six are core and three electives, chosen from a one of two streams, Allied Health or Aboriginal Health.

A Statement of Attainment will be issued for each unit of competency completed if the full qualification is not completed.

The Qualification is to be delivered utilising face to face delivery mode, with a 110-hour work placement required to be undertaken in a suitable work placement to allow for consolidation of knowledge and skills.

1. The WA Pre-traineeship program business rules provide for details on the requirements of the program. The business rules also outline the amount of work practice a student is to undertake and RTO responsibilities in relation to the pre-traineeship work placement component.
2. The set of work placement coordination modules should be used to indicate that the RTO has undertaken and completed its responsibilities for establishing and monitoring on-the-job work placements for each pre-trainee.
3. RTOs should report pre-trainees in each module as each phase of the work placement is achieved as follows:
- Module 1: when the RTO has completed “coordinating work placement” identified in Rule 2.4, including contacting suitable employer/s and arranging the on-the-job work placement.
- Module 2: when the pre-trainee has commenced the first half of the on the-job work placement with an employer.
- Module 3: when the pre-trainee has commenced the remaining half of the on-the-job work placement with an employer.
- Module 4: when “monitoring work placement” and “evidence of the work placement” identified in Rule 2.4, including the site visit/s, total number of hours of on-the-job work placement and log book with employer sign off have been completed.
4. The pre-trainee does not incur course fees for the work placement coordination modules as the nominal hours value for each of these modules is zero.
5. The Department will use the work placement coordination modules reported for each pre-trainee to monitor RTO efforts in establishing and monitoring on-the-job work placements.
6. The work placement coordination modules do not represent the amount of workplace experience a student must undertake.
7. The work placement coordination modules are non-assessable and do not specify skill and knowledge requirements.
8. Work placement coordination modules should only be reported as outcome “Non-assessable - satisfactorily completed” (NA for State Training Providers; 4 for private training providers).
9. The work practice coordination modules are not to be used outside of nominated Department of Training and Workforce Development funded programs, which includes the WA Pre-traineeship Program.
