Background Information
The Certificates in Sugar Milling in this Training Package are available at AQF levels 1, 2 and 3. The Qualification structure provides the flexibility required to address seasonal variation in job content. This Training Package covers but is not limited to employees who work in an individual or any combination of process, services, maintenance and or transport roles.
This Training Package has been developed under the auspice of the National Food Industry Training Council (NFITC). The NFITC has managed a multi-level consultation process to engage industry in the development and validation of the Package.
- An industry steering committee was convened, with members representing a range of sugar mills, the Australian Sugar Milling Council, industry unions and the Queensland State Training Authority. A TAFE representative was nominated by industry to participate in the process.
- Expert panels were convened in Bundaberg, Mackay and Townsville. This was followed up with more intensive work groups formed to address specific competency areas.

An industry-wide, national validation process was conducted involving the Australian Workers Union (QLD, NSW and National offices), Australian Sugar Milling Council, Sugar Mills in Queensland, New South Wales and Western Australia, and relevant Registered Training Organisations and State Training Authorities.
