21 February 2024 Transport and Logistics – TLI Training Package Update

Industry Skills Australia (ISA) has embarked on a significant initiative to update the Transport and Logistics (TLI) training package, specifically targeting the Chain of Responsibility. The TLI training package update aims to align a few units with the latest requirements laid out by the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR), ensuring that industry professionals are equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge to uphold safety standards in transport activities.

The focus of the TLI training package update revolves around updating two key units of competency:

Unit of Competency
TLIF0009 Ensure the safety of transport activities (Chain of Responsibility)
TLIF0014 Monitor the safety of transport activities (Chain of Responsibility)

These units are pivotal in training individuals across various job roles within the transport sector on their obligations concerning the chain of responsibility under the Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL).

Responding to the NHVR changes, the TLI training update aims to enhance understanding of the principles governing compliance with the law, enabling businesses and executives to effectively apply them to their operational contexts. The updated units will provide guidance on crucial aspects such as:

  • Record keeping
  • Work diary completion
  • Understanding access requirements such as using the NHVR journey planner, mass concessions, interpretation of permits and notices, and requirements for Oversize Overmass (OSOM) vehicles
  • Vehicle safety systems – ESC, RSC, ABS etc.
  • Chain of responsibility awareness

Moreover, the TLI training update will extend its reach to update 22 qualifications and seven Skill Sets that include the Chain of Responsibility units. This comprehensive approach ensures that the entire TLI training package remains current and relevant to the evolving needs of the industry. Any outdated units will be revised as part of the routine maintenance of the training package.

The overarching goal of this TLI training package update is to empower individuals within the transport sector with the necessary expertise to fulfil their obligations under the Chain of Responsibility framework. By equipping industry professionals with updated knowledge and skills, ISA aims to enhance safety standards and regulatory compliance across the transport and logistics landscape.

What Do RTOs Need to Do?

With these TLI training updates, RTOs should review their scope of registration and ensure they are delivering the most current versions of qualifications and units. To manage these TLI training package changes, RTOs should:

  • Confirm the latest releases are added to their scope of registration.
  • Monitor the 12-month transition period and ensure all learners are transitioned to the new versions within the allowed timeframe.
  • Ensure learners enrolled in deleted units or skill sets complete their training within 12 months, and within 2 years for deleted qualifications.
  • Apply to add any new, non-equivalent qualifications or units of competency to their scope where required.

Staying on top of TLI training package changes helps RTOs maintain compliance and plan delivery with confidence. By reviewing updates early and managing transitions carefully, you can minimise disruption, support learner progression, and ensure training remains aligned with current regulatory requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do TLI training package updates occur so frequently?

The transport and logistics sector operates in a highly regulated environment. Updates ensure the TLI transport and logistics training package reflects current laws, safety standards, technology changes, and real-world industry practices.

How do TLI training package updates affect an RTO’s scope of registration?

Updates may require RTOs to add new releases, transition learners to updated training products, or apply for scope where qualifications or units are not equivalent. Regular scope reviews help avoid compliance risks.

What should RTOs prioritise when a new TLI training update is released?

RTOs should first confirm which qualifications or units are affected, review existing training and assessment materials, and plan learner transitions within the approved timeframes to ensure continuity of delivery.

Do training package updates always mean major delivery changes?

Not always. Some updates are minor release changes, while others involve superseding or removing training products. Each latest TLI update needs to be reviewed individually to understand its practical impact.

How can RTOs stay on top of ongoing training package changes?

Establishing a routine process for monitoring training.gov.au, reviewing Industry Skills Body announcements, and maintaining up-to-date training resources helps RTOs manage changes across training packages Australia recognises.

Conclusion

With multiple releases and ongoing changes to the TLI transport and logistics training package, keeping training resources current is essential for compliant delivery. Having access to up-to-date materials makes it easier to manage transitions, support learner progress, and plan future delivery with confidence.

If you are reviewing your scope or preparing for upcoming updates, TotalVET Training Resources offers a full range of TLI training resources to ensure you have the latest versions available.
