New pricing structure for qualification resources.
We wish to advise you of the following.
You now have two options for each of the qualification resources:
1. Original packaging and
2. CE packaging
With the CE option we will provide you with all the core and the electives as per training.gov.au minimum requirements (for example, CHC30113 – Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care has 15 Core and 3 Electives). The electives can be selected from the ones available from Real Learning Solutions for that course. The pricing for this option has a CE after the code. (for example, CHC30113CE). The other option will still be available should you prefer. (This option will give you all the core and more than the required minimum number of electives).
Individual units are still unchanged. The prices for individual units has not changed for over 5 years.
For the CE option, please complete the enquiry form on that webpage stating the elective units you wish to receive in your qualification package. We will send you a BPoint link to purchase the materials. Materials can then be accessed via the DropBox and Express Post.
This Category includes the existing courses plus the new materials as they are announced and contain requests to be placed on a list for notification regarding the new resources.
