Frequently Asked Questions About Teacher PD for VETiS
Answers to the questions school teachers, VET Coordinators, and Principals most often ask about TAE requirements.
Does every teacher involved in VETiS delivery need the TAE40122?
Not necessarily. The required qualification depends on the teacher's specific role. Teachers who make formal assessment decisions generally need the TAE40122. Teachers in a facilitation or support role under the RTO's oversight may be able to use the TAESS00024 skill set instead. Blueprint will advise on requirements for each teacher based on their program role.
How long does it take to complete the TAE40122?
The standard TAE40122 program typically takes approximately 12 months to complete, though Blueprint's Accelerated Teacher Program is designed for experienced teachers who can progress more quickly. The upgrade pathway from TAE40110 or TAE40116 is shorter, covering only the gap units.
Can a school start a VETiS program while its teachers are completing the TAE40122?
This depends on the specific delivery model and the arrangements in place with Blueprint. Contact Blueprint's school partnerships team to discuss the options for schools whose teachers are in the process of completing their TAE qualification.
What is the cost of Blueprint's TAE40122 program for school teachers?
Fee information for Blueprint's TAE40122 and TAESS00024 programs is available on the individual course pages. Group enrolment options may be available for schools with multiple teachers requiring TAE qualifications — contact Blueprint to discuss.
Is the TAE40122 only needed for VETiS delivery, or is it useful more broadly?
The TAE40122 is a nationally recognised qualification that is relevant to any professional involved in training and assessment — not just school-based VETiS delivery. Teachers who complete the TAE40122 are qualified to work as VET trainers and assessors in a wide range of contexts, including TAFE, private RTOs, and workplace training. It is a valuable qualification for any teacher seeking to expand their professional capabilities.
