Equity is a term used to cover issues relating to access to VET, participation in VET, and achievement of outcomes in VET.
Equity issues range from providing a supportive learning environment to adjusting assessments to meet individual
circumstances, from policies on fee reduction to development of inclusive training materials. Basically, equity refers to the ability
to achieve results in training and to receive training in an inclusive environment with inclusive materials. An inclusive
environment or set of materials is one that acknowledges and values the differences between people and cultures. It includes
rather than excludes.
CEAV Institute is committed to ensuring that all prospective Candidates are able to participate and have the opportunity to build
on their potential, make choices and receive responsive and appropriate products and services. While the destination for all
Candidates may be the same (i.e. demonstrating competence to the standard required), the journey may be different. For
example, some Candidates may gain their credential through skills recognition. Some Candidates may need more time than
others, for example because of their family or work responsibilities. CEAV Institute aims to ensure equity by being flexible,
responsive and avoiding a ‘one size fits all’ approach to training and assessment.
Access generally refers to the ability to enter training. CEAV Institute is committed to improving access includes improving
physical access to the training venue and ensuring that selection criteria do not discriminate against Candidates.
