  • updates to qualification packaging rules.

Details of the amendments are outlined in the Construction Modification History. The updated syllabus documents are available on the Board’s website.

The updated syllabus is to be implemented with students commencing study in 2014.

For students continuing study in 2014, contact the Registered Training Organisation for advice on whether students will continue with courses based on version 7 or version 8 of the CPC08 Training Package.
