Reframing+the+Future+Refrigeration

=Refrigeration and air conditioning=

This project proposes to establish a community of practice focused on the implementation of the Refrigeration & Air Conditioning Training Package including quality and consistency of assessment through extending networks of collaboration between TAFE, the Refrigeration & Air Conditioning Contractors Association (RACCA), the Australian Refrigeration Institute of Air Conditioning & Heating (AIRAH) and industry representatives.

As part of this network, ample opportunity will be provided for trainers and assessors to reflect upon and improve their practice, share information, access resources, validate assessment tools and develop new forms of collaboration with various stakeholders. A meeting was held on Tuesday August 15th including representatives from industry, TAFE NSW Sydney Institute and representatives from TAFE Tasmania and TAFE Western Australia.

Discussion revolved around industry needs and the quality of service Sydney Institute offers. Various options of delivery were discussed with a perspective from TAFE Western Australia and TAFE Tasmania and the consensus was that further collaboration is needed and stronger partnerships between industry and TAFE to ensure best outcomes for students, trainees and employers.
