Building and Construction

CPC Training Resources for the Building & Construction Industry

With a course catalogue that includes CPC training resources that make up 15 qualifications, RTO Works provides quality learning materials for every student. Our CPC resources are designed by a team with more than 20 years of experience. We seek input from RTOs, trainers and subject matter experts, making our CPC training package some of Australia’s best learning materials for students and instructors.

Our collaborative approach to designing CPC training resources ensures we’re providing up to date information on industry practices and standards. This gives students the opportunity to learn real-world skills and knowledge that will serve them well in their careers. With CPC learning resources covering construction, carpentry, painting, tiling, bricklaying, plastering, concreting and more, RTO Works is ready to help your students achieve their ambitions.

Which version should I order?

Sometimes you will see that we have listed two versions of a unit under a single qualification. This is because some units appear in multiple qualifications from the CPC Training Package, so we have produced versions that we refer to as ‘qualification specific’ and ‘general construction’.

Qualification-specific versions

For example, the Painting and Decorating version of a unit includes references to painting and decorating examples, the assessment has marking guidance specific to painting and decorating (where relevant) and the CPC training resources have been updated with painting and decorating video links, images and activities.

General construction versions

These versions can be used across multiple qualifications; however, the marking guidance, examples and video links are general in nature. You will need to contextualise the learning and assessment for use with each of the qualifications you are delivering if you choose to purchase a general construction version for use across a range of qualifications.

Important information about our Certificate IV and Diploma resources

Many of the units across the Certificate IV and Diploma qualifications require students to have access to a live site or a closely simulated live site. For many of these units, students will need to inspect, implement or be observed in a construction environment. This, along with state and territory variations to legislation, codes of practice and NCC requirements, has made it difficult to provide plans and specs or to create specific case studies and benchmark guidance within our assessments.

We have certainly made the CPC training resources flexible so that they can be used by students who are employed or who are classroom based but the assessments will require a higher level of RTO contextualisation than you might expect from, say, a BSB or IT unit.

We have provided additional guidance for trainers and assessors in our Toolboxes and we recommend that you review a sample unit before purchasing if you have concerns about the level of contextualisation which may be required.
