Form E
Standing Application for amendments
to Training Packages
Important Information
A Standing Application only applies to amendments to Training Packages where relevant
qualifications (or units of competence) are already on your RTO’s scope of registration, and
the VRQA’s published transition advice confirms the new qualifications and/or units of
competence are equivalent.
All other changes to scope must be the subject of an application using Form B. Please refer to the
Guide to Form B before submitting an application.
Step 1:
Read the guidance material carefully and complete and submit Form E to:
Victorian Registration and Qualifications Authority
GPO Box 2317
Melbourne Victoria 3001
Note: For additional information about VET registration please visit the VRQA website –
www.vrqa.vic.gov.au
Step 2:
On receipt of Form E the VRQA will consider your application.
There is no fee for lodging a Standing Application.
Step 3:
When amendments to Training Packages occur that are on your RTO’s scope of
registration, the VRQA will assess your Standing Application against its published transition
advice.
No application fees apply for updates made to your scope of registration under a valid Standing
Application.
