Who are Community Colleges? What is a QTLF for Community Colleges and why would we want one? Research questions Research plan What are the drivers for a QTLF? Early findings and discussion

 43 autonomous RTOs  Over 6 million hours of training (2010)  102,000 individual students  More than 500 locations (town/suburbs)  Metropolitan, remote and rural locations  Cooperative Learning Ltd is a legal cooperative comprised of 17 Community Colleges in Northern NSW

A QTLF might describe capabilities, work expectations and career paths for trainers and assessors. Could be used by Community Colleges for:  Designing job descriptions  Recruitment and selection of staff  Performance appraisal  Supporting new and developing trainers  Professional development plans and career plans  Showing links and pathways between jobs  Improving professionalism, teacher autonomy and capacity in CC

 What could a quality teaching and learning framework for Community Colleges look like?  How could it be used by managers and by trainers?  How is professional development currently managed in Community Colleges?  Is there any value to having a specific QTLF for Community Colleges? Or would we benefit more from sharing the same QTLF adopted by other VET RTOs?
