  1. Apply New
    This will create a new unit in your account, populated with the details provided 
    (Title, internal code, recognised code, core unit for this course) 

  2. Apply Existing
    This will display a drop down list, where you can choose from a list of units which already exist in your account. You will also select if this should be a core unit in this course when it is attached.

  3. Import/apply units
    This function uses the Training.gov.au website's data about courses and their units, to give you a simple list of units which you can select from to add units to your course with a single click. 

    Choose what to do if any of the units in the list already exist in your account;

    • Create and attach a new version of the unit
      (which you can safely edit, because it is a separate version to the existing version/s of the unit)

    • Attach the existing version of the unit
      (where any changes made will also impact this unit where it is within other courses or as a single unit of competency)

    Existing units will show in the list with blue text - per your selection above, either the existing version of the unit or a new blank version of the unit will be added to your course.

Frequently Asked Questions

I've added a unit to my course. Why can't I see it in the progress tracker or student portal?

If the timetable item/s for this course had been created already prior to adding these units, and it is an elective unit (not a core unit), then it will need to be manually inserted for each pre-existing timetable.
