Series 12 Toolbox development
This year, Series 12 Toolboxes will be developed for the following industry areas:
- Forestry
- Retail
- Community services
- Electrotechnology
- Plumbing
- Spatial information services
These Toolboxes will be developed throughout the year and released in early 2010. They will add to a collection of more than 100 existing Toolboxes across a diverse range of educational and industry areas, helping deliver over 170 qualifications and supporting approximately 930 units of competency.
A guide to creating learning design for VET
A guide to creating learning design for VET (Word - 2MB) was developed by the Australian Flexible Learning Framework. The guide has been designed for learning designers in the Australian vocational education and training (VET) sector, seeking to plan and design online learning materials. The purpose of this guide is to provide designers with a series of model learning designs that they can use to plan the learning environments. The guide cannot capture all learning and design variables but provides information that is intended to inform the learning designer on how best these can be considered and dealt with.

Series 11 Toolbox development progress
Series 11 Toolboxes are now available for purchase from TVET Australia and their preview pages will link to the catalogue for orders, apart from the following:
- 11.08 Events – This is still being completed and should be available early March.
- 11.02 Cybertots – This was once again put on hold last year due to a late endorsement of the training package. The new content is now being reviewed and the development is again underway, however it’s unlikely to be available before mid 2009.
- Learning objects are available for 11.01, 11.04, 11.05, 11.06 and 11.07.
- The 11.03 learning objects will be up within the next month, and 11.02 and 11.08 will be available on completion of their relative resources.
