Summary
In 2007-8, AMPC and MLA funded a research project to research options to provide furtherdevelopment for students who have completed the Advanced Diploma in Meat Processingprogram, or who are entering senior company positions. This formed stage one of a three-stageproject. The research identified that the most suitable option was for the development of aVocational Education and Training Graduate Certificate and Diploma.
Stage 2 of the project occurred during 2008-10 and involved the development of suitable unitsand the accreditation of the new qualifications – the Vocational Graduate Certificate and Diplomain Agribusiness. These qualifications are due to be endorsed by the National Quality Council andincluded in the MTM11 Australian Meat Industry Training Package later this year.
In Stage 3 of the project, undertaken from March – June 2011, a delivery strategy and resourcesfor the first few Units were developed.
It was anticipated that Registered TrainingOrganisations would accept students into the program in 2012.
