Plenty Training launches industry-first ACE certification to set new standard for VET trainer currency

Plenty Training < 1 mins read

Gold Coast, Australia – Leading Australian Registered Training Organisation (RTO), Plenty Training, has announced the launch of its newest innovation, the Annual Currency Evaluation (ACE) — a program designed to raise the bar for trainer credibility and currency in the Vocational Education and Training (VET) sector.

Developed to address growing concerns around inconsistent trainer quality and transparency, the ACE program offers trainers and RTOs a clear, independent benchmark for confirming industry currency. The four-hour assessment process evaluates a trainer’s current skills and knowledge, issuing a certificate valid for 12 months.

“Through industry consultation, we realised an increasing number of RTOs were voicing a shared concern,” said Ashleigh Ridley, Operations Manager of Plenty Training. “Fields like childcare, construction, healthcare and safety were subject to regular certification renewals and checks, but the trainers and assessors delivering these weren’t necessarily subject to the same.”

The program has already generated significant interest across the sector, with early adopters praising its simplicity, development, and potential to support audit readiness.

With compliance and quality assurance top of mind for many RTOs, Plenty Training says ACE will help organisations clearly demonstrate trainer credibility and meet industry expectations with confidence.

“Whether you're managing an RTO or working as a contractor, ACE proves that you're not just qualified — you're current,” said Ridley.
