ACM10 Animal Care and Management Training package

Endorsement from the National Quality Council

In June 2010, the National Quality Council gave its endorsement to the ACM10 Animal Care and Management Training Package and has set a review date of 28 June 2013.

A typical timeframe should see the new units of competency, skill sets, qualifications or training package being made ‘live’ on the National Register (NTIS) within 43 days.

Final draft materials

The following material for the revised Animal Care and Management Training Package is available for downloading:

• ACM10 Case for Endorsement

This document is Version 2 of the ACM10 Case for Endorsement which has been modified post-endorsement as per requirements of the DEEWR Case for Endorsement template instructions:

' Following endorsement, appendices A and B are removed and the modified Case for Endorsement made available to all stakeholders by: the ISC posting the modified document on its website; and STAs distributing the modified Case for Endorsement to registering bodies, course accrediting bodies, jurisdictional regulators and appropriate RTOs within their jurisdiction.'

• ACM10 Volume 1: Introduction, Qualification Framework and Assessment Guidelines
• ACM10 Volume 2: Units of Competency
• ACM10 Volume 3: Imported Units of Competency

These volumes will be available until the materials become available on the NTIS website.
