Veriskills
VeriSkills™ is owned by Queensland Tertiary Admissions Centre Limited (QTAC™), a registered educational charity owned by Australian universities. As part of Australia’s qualifications ecosystem QTAC™ is powering VeriSkills™ to ensure courses and training programs continue to provide meaning to a person’s skills, credentials and experience allowing them to be better matched for future opportunities.
VeriSkills™ is equipped to assess courses and programs to evaluate the human capability outcomes of each course. VeriSkills™ will assess your course, training or professional development program to determine the human capability outcomes upon completion of the qualification and their corresponding level of achievement against the human capabilities framework. This makes programs more attractive to attendees and organisations, as the standardised, measurable outcomes mean that the skills gained through your course or program are easily communicated and integrated into the individual’s overall qualifications and skills matrix.
Once a course is assessed, each human capability and its corresponding level of achievement on completion of the course is detailed so participants can assess the suitability of your course and communicate these outcomes to potential employers.
