​​Nationally recognised training is defined as:

Any program of training leading to vocational qualifications and credentials that are recognised across Australia.

These include:

• industry training package qualifications and units of competency as listed on training.gov.au
• courses that have been accredited by a VET Regulator.

Only RTOs are able to offer vocational education and training (VET) courses to students and the qualifications range from Certificate I to Graduate Diploma level.  All RTOs must meet regulatory standards set out in the Standards for​ Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) 2015​​

All RTOs, recognised qualifications, units of competency and accredited courses can be found on the Australian directory for VET at myskills.gov.au.​
