About Us
Eduworks Resources is part of the RTO Advice Group Family.
Our story begins in 2009. RTO Advice Group was established with the aim to assist RTOs to manage their business and compliance needs more efficiently.
Our Story
There is no growth without challenge! Typically, RTOs that we worked with struggled to acquire high-quality and easy-to-use assessment material. Their resources were not tailored to their course areas and delivery contexts. Another challenge is that instructional writing, editing, and desktop publishing for vocational education and training are highly specialised skill sets. Skill sets that most RTOs do not have access to or may be unable to afford. Therefore, a lack of quality resources could lead to poor educational experiences and hinder auditing success.
We refused to send our clients to audit with resources that could result in non-compliances. So, we began spending considerable time consulting, researching, writing, developing, and adapting to provide our clients with high-quality resources that they could depend on.
In 2010 Eduworks Resources was established to promote the range of products and services we had developed. Since then we have been developing high quality ready-to-use and customisable training and assessment resources for RTOs across the country. Eduworks Resources is loved by RTOs around Australia and has a reputation among many for providing the best resources available on the market.
Our Team
Our Eduworks Resources team is a collection of industry specialists with years of experience in RTOs, the VET sector, education, training & assessment, and educational publishing. We work and collaborate together to design high quality resources. We’re passionate about ensuring everything we create is compliant and engaging.
