Interactive Learning Tools 

Includes learning activities, case studies, and end-of-chapter review questions to support independent study, class activities, and homework.  

Rich learning experiences

The new eBook platform allows students to easily watch videos on their devices and quickly look up references and links.

Engaging Visuals

Visually engaging graphics are included to support learning content, aid comprehension, and retain student focus for longer, contributing to revised RTO standards for 2025

Eduworks Resources’ Learner Guides have been developed with current best practices in learning methodology and in close consultation with industry and subject matter experts.

Aligning with the 2025 RTO Standards

The VET sector in Australia is evolving with the implementation of revised 2025 RTO standards. These changes focus on a range of enhancements, one of which is centred on improving training quality and course delivery. 

Focus on Course Delivery

Our eBooks are designed to align with this area of the new standards by integrating technology and interactive learning techniques, ensuring effective and meaningful training outcomes.  

By adopting our eBook format, RTOs can demonstrate a commitment to these new standards, ensuring high-quality education delivery and compliance, even before they come into practice.
