The all-new Avetta University provides streamlined access to crucial e-training so suppliers and contractors are always ready to work
SYDNEY--BUSINESS WIRE--
Avetta®, the leading provider of supply chain risk management (SCRM) software, today announced Avetta University, a new learning resource fully integrated into the AI-powered Avetta One platform. Designed to provide suppliers and contractors with crucial health and safety e-training, it helps hiring clients keep every link in their supply chains ready to work.
Health and safety training is a cornerstone of effective risk management—it helps ensure jobs are completed with the highest standards. However, Australia’s work-related training rates have stagnated, according to the Productivity Commission’s latest report. The most recent ABS figures show that only a third of workers took part in work-related training in the last 12 months despite ongoing reforms to boost the quantity and quality of skills in Australia.
Avetta University solves this challenge by offering an expertly curated course library that hiring clients can select from and direct their suppliers and contractors to complete before they begin work. Suppliers and contractors can also self-enroll in courses, empowering them with a competitive advantage over vendors that have not received certificates of completion from Avetta. Integration within Avetta One means courses and certificates of completion are easily accessed and managed alongside the platform’s other features and benefits.
“We’re committed to helping every company make health and safety a top priority, particularly suppliers and contractors who need flexible, accessible training that fits how they work,” said Abid Yousuf, Chief Customer Officer at Avetta. “With Avetta University, we're making it seamless to improve health and safety performance across entire supply chains with training that’s as easy to deploy and participate in as it is essential.”
The high-value courses available through Avetta University are sourced from leading providers and complemented with micro-learning modules developed by Avetta’s instructional design team and subject matter experts, who are part of the company’s industry-leading Risk Advisory practice. They cover strategic topics such as improving health and safety processes, reducing serious injury and fatality rates, strengthening health and safety systems and compliance, and supporting safety leadership and culture. They also cover frontline safety topics like chemical, electrical and mechanical safety; environmental awareness; emergency action planning; first aid; and safely working at heights. The course library will continue to grow based on customer needs, industry trends, updated safety data and user feedback.
“Avetta University is designed to remove friction, cost and access barriers from supplier compliance,” said Sharon Macquarie, Head of Global Training at Avetta. “Many suppliers—particularly smaller contractors—are expected to meet increasing health and safety requirements without the budget, time or systems to manage training effectively. By providing affordable, accessible, role-relevant training within the Avetta platform, we enable suppliers to build capability, use it across multiple clients and get to work faster, without training becoming a commercial blocker to safety.”
In addition to Avetta University, Avetta also provides Job Ready Pathways—practical guidance that helps customers clearly identify what safety training is required for specific high-risk roles and activities. Available through Avetta’s member benefits page, these pathways remove guesswork by aligning job tasks with recommended training, supporting more consistent onboarding and improved safety performance.
To further extend value for its global community, Avetta offers other tailored multimedia and immersive eLearning solutions built to enhance compliance, operational safety and workforce efficiency. Avetta University, Job Ready Pathways, and Avetta’s eLearning and worker competency integrated LMS capabilities provide a connected ecosystem—digital learning, role-based guidance and advanced training—that supports workforce readiness well beyond compliance.
