Australian Sugar Industry Training - Development of factory training modules - Phase 4

With the increasingly transient nature of the workforce, training systems for the Australian sugar industry need to be developed to facilitate ‘any time’ operator training. The on-line training developed and available on the Australian Sugar Industry Training Learning Management System (ASIT LMS) allows training to take place at any time. The operator training programs, mapped to the national competencies, along with a structured assessment process ensure that all operators undertaking the courses have their knowledge competency assessed against a minimum industry standard. Users progress, quiz results, assessment and certificate records are update and stored in ‘real time’. A competent workforce could be described as one that is able to analyse and understand the processes for which it is responsible. A competent workforce will assist and reinforce the current competitive advantage of the Australian sugar industry.
