What should schools ask an RTO before partnering in a VETiS-funded program?

Assessment and Marking Process
Ask how student assessments are marked and who is responsible. At Blueprint, our qualified assessors mark all student work. This saves teachers time so they can focus on their core teaching workload.

Industry Professional Development
Check what professional development opportunities are available. At Blueprint, we offer engaging, hands-on industry refreshers, such as our 2-day, 1-night hospitality release in a 5-star hotel—including accommodation, meals, and on-the-job experience.

Additional Training Opportunities
Ask about extra training sessions that help staff and students stay industry-current. Blueprint provides experiences such as coffee training and tea ceremony workshops to strengthen real-world skills.

Costs
Clarify if there are any costs to the school. With Blueprint’s Career Ready programs, hospitality qualifications and the Certificate IV in Training and Assessment are included in the agreement, delivering value without hidden extras.

By asking these questions, schools gain a clear picture of how an RTO’s VETiS-funded program supports staff, enhances industry skills, and reduces costs—helping students become truly Career Ready.
