Students are also provided with an orientation to the course to outline the learning
and assessment processes, support services and other relevant information. This
forms part of the general orientation that DIT provides to students.
− All students will be provided with a range of learning support options and resources
to help them achieve competency.
− Students can also be supported outside of face-to-face mode through e-mail and
telephone contact with their trainer. Students are provided with their trainer’s contact

− Students are encouraged to contact their trainer at any time and trainers will liaise
with students regarding their progress and provide advice as required including any
relevant course content and concepts, learning opportunities, assessment
requirements, feedback on assessments and any issues the student is
experiencing.
− Students will be required to do homework which will need at least 2-5 hours of study
per week.
− DIT uses a range of techniques during face-to-face delivery including trainer
presentations and demonstrations, individual tasks, case studies, research, role
plays, practical demonstrations and group work. The context of the simulated
workplace environment will be incorporated into delivery methodologies and
students will complete tasks to appropriate workplace standards.
− Delivery methodologies employ policy document, procedure manual, terminology,
equipment, resources, materials, contexts, practices and activities associated with
the business (or related) role in the workplace.
− The simulated training environment is achieved by using documentation standards,
policy manual, equipment, tools, technology, workplace conditions, legislation,
quality standards and approaches to work that match those currently employed in
industry in a business context. For example, workplace plans (business/operational/
weekly), administration documentation, IT hardware (computers, laptops, printers,
projectors) and Microsoft office software applications, telephones, tables and chairs,
policy and procedure manuals.
− Students understanding of the workplace and its requirements will be developed
throughout the course.
− The environment is created to suit the specific unit requirements and the trainer
reinforces understanding through relating to their own experience and through the
use of learning materials e.g. textbooks, handouts or videos. Depending on the unit
content and context the classroom environment is adapted to recreate the simulated
work environment.
− Appropriate simulated contexts and activities are incorporated into delivery and
prepare students for assessment. These align to the contexts and activities
indicated in the units of competency. The simulated assessment contexts and
activities also align to the requirements of each unit of competency.
− During the practical sessions, sufficient time is allocated for students to perform the
required tasks, practice their skills and reinforce their knowledge.
