Can Your RTO Demonstrate Ongoing Compliance? Are your practices, systems, and processes effectively self-assured? Join us to learn how to build a robust self-assurance system and meet compliance requirements with confidence
About this Webinar

- Assessing Your Readiness. Discover how to evaluate your RTO’s preparedness for self-assurance and the 2025 Standards, identify areas for development, and take actionable steps to address gaps.
- Action Planning.Leave equipped to create a comprehensive action plan to establish or enhance your RTO’s self-assurance system. You’ll also receive templates and tools to guide your team toward a culture of self-assurance that prioritises quality and meets the expectations of the new Standards.

Javier is an excellent presenter who knows his subject matter and how to present it so that everyone can understand. Because this particular topic is complex additional time was required. Javier did something that does not happen very often - he asked if participants could stay on longer and he didn't rush through the final points of the session. I have found that every interaction with Insources has been professional, informative and completely relevant to my work. Thank you
Judith Evans
Excellent. Will highly recommend.
