AIM SA SUSTAINABILITY STRATEGY

AIM SA believe that adopting and advocating sustainable environmental, social and business practices is essential for the growth of our economy and the survival of our planet.

This belief and our commitment to promote, both by our actions and through education, sustainable and responsible environmental, social and business practices is consistent with AIM SA’s vision to “develop better leaders and managers for a better society.”

WHAT ARE WE DOING?

In 2008 and 2009 AIM SA participated in audits on its policies, practices and facilities at the CMD, and in 2010 implemented recommended improvements to reduce our carbon footprint and to ensure sustainability is integral to our strategic and business planning, as well as to our day to day operations.

AIM SA is developing a suite of courseware and educational products with the purpose of preparing leaders for making decisions, managing change and implementing innovations for environmental, social and business sustainability.

From the CEO

Challenges & Opportunities

For most organisations, the post Global Financial

Crisis period is presenting ongoing challenges

but also has identifi ed new opportunities.

This has meant that to remain competitive,

organisations will need to develop both targeted

and realistic workforce development plans that

ensure skills continue to be developed and that

the very best employees are retained.

Research indicates that South Australia will face

a future labour, especially for skilled workers. The

South Australian Training & Skills Commission

has highlighted that:

‘To meet the projected industry demand for

skills, and to up-skill the existing workforce, it is

projected that South Australia will need to deliver

260,000 post school education and training

qualifi cations over the next 5 years’.

This means that as we move into 2011 and

improving economic conditions, all organisations

will need to have a clear focus on their people

management strategies. AIM SA will argue

that this directly relates to strategies that are

underpinned by skill development and that

organisations will need to particularly focus on:

• Retention of their most highly skilled people

• A commitment to skill development through

appropriate workforce planning

• Meet return on investment (ROI) expectations

through increased productivity and motivation

• Develop attraction strategies that will help win

the talent war and the pending skills shortage

AIM SA is committed to assisting South

Australian organisations navigate through these

challenging times and this 2011 Directory

highlights the practical ways we can help

organisations grow and develop.

During 2011 AIM SA will continue to deliver on

three key strategies which will help ensure that

we remain a results oriented partner to

organisations in all sectors:

A unique Education & Training Articulation

Pathway – with qualifi cations from Certifi cate III

to MBA, AIM SA offers unique education and

training learning opportunities to support

individual and organisational development needs.

Our Skills and Assessment Strategy –

supporting the State’s Strategic Plan, AIM SA

has committed itself to increasing the number

of people with non-school qualifi cations.

An integrated business model delivering

practical solutions – as a professional

management organisation AIM SA offers

products, services and facilities that support

delivery of a total business solution for our clients.

In short, the ongoing commitment we make is

that we shall do our very best to deliver the right

solutions so that the right results are achieved

by our clients.

John Stokes FAIM CPMgr

AIM SA’s core purpose is to ‘develop better managers and leaders for a better society’ and we do this by offering products and services that enhance skills thereby improving performance and supporting career development.

Given the current shortage of skilled labour,

it is imperative that organisations take every

competitive advantage they can to ensure

they can compete in the marketplace.

An independent research project of over 800

South Australian employees (Gen X & Y)

conducted by AIM SA with SA Great found

that 73% rated management style as the

number one reason to stay with an employer.

This was the number one factor in staff

retention – having a manager that they respect

and enjoy working with.

The same survey rated an organisation’s

commitment to the development of their

staff through education and training as the

fourth most important reason to stay with

their employer.

Program OverviewRecent history has shown that organisations need ethical and future focussed work practices to be sustainable. Increasingly organisations are being asked to demonstrate socially responsible values when they tender for business and are requesting the same from their suppliers. Ethics and values are more commonly being seen as major contributors of a business’ resilience.

Organisations are collections of individuals. Often the personal values and ethics of the individuals, particularly those in leadership roles, will inform and be infl uenced by the organisational values and ethics. A mismatch of personal and organisational ethics and values can undermine both personal and organisational resilience.

This course will consider how managers and leaders can identify their own values and those of their organisation and translate these into ethical and resilient business practices.

Learning Outcomes• Identify personal ethics and values• Identify organisational ethics and values• Identify relevant standards and codes of practice

for your organisation• Model and promote ethical work practices and

Nationally Recognised Training and Assessment

As a Registered Training OrganisationAIM SA can deliver and assess trainingfor your employees.

The Australian Qualifi cations Framework (AQF)

is a structure for qualifi cations from Senior

Secondary Certifi cates through to Doctoral Degrees.

The Vocational Education and Training (VET)

qualifi cations within the framework are:

Certifi cates I, II, III and IV, Diploma, Advanced

Diploma, Graduate Certifi cate and Graduate

Diploma.

issuing AQF Qualifi cations and/or Statements

of Attainment. It ensures the recognition of

training providers and the AQF Qualifi cations

and Statements of Attainment they issue,

across Australia.

AIM SA Program Assessment

Assessment consolidates what has been learnt and completes the training process. Participants gain a nationally recognised Statement of Attainment – organisations benefi t by improved productivity.

Here’s why every participant should undertake

assessment:

The Importance of Assessment

Training alone is often not enough. To make a

real impact and gain maximum benefi t,

participants must be assessed in applying their

new or enhanced skills, demonstrating that they

can competently use the skills and knowledge

learnt during the training phase.

This ensures immediate benefi ts to the employer

and greater satisfaction for the employee.

Benefi ts of Assessment

So now that we have told you why assessment

is important, what are the benefi ts to both

individuals and organisations? Here’s some

key reasons:

Individual

Assessment ensures you: • Retain what has been learnt - less than 25% of

what has been learnt is retained after 10 days -

assessment can increase this by up to 90%!• Gain a nationally recognised Qualifi cation -

this has positive benefi ts for both you and your

organisation

• Create building blocks for future Qualifi cations

- helps open new career pathways• Use individual units from short programs

towards a large range of AIM SA qualifi cations• Demonstrate your commitment to the benefi ts

of training

Organisation

Assessment ensures: • ROI is achieved on the training investment• Greater retention of new skills learnt which

means a more positive impact in the workforce• That attraction and retention strategies

demonstrate commitment to employee skills

and career development

Future Employability will be based

on your assessed Qualifi cations

(The real case for Assessment – in the next 20 years in SA)

• Employment will grow by 30-40%

• Jobs for people with VET qualifi cations will

increase by 50%

• Jobs growth for people without

post-school qualifi cations will be minimal

AIM SA’s Commitment to Assessment

and Qualifi cations

Workforce skills forecasts show that in the next

10 to 20 years, employees without post-school

qualifi cations will be competing for fewer

‘unskilled’ jobs.

One way for individuals to guarantee their

future employability is to gain relevant

qualifi cations. Likewise, an important way for

organisations to attract and retain skilled

employees is to demonstrate an ongoing

commitment to training.

With this in mind, AIM SA has aligned itself with

the South Australian Strategic Plan, placing

particular emphasis on growing the number of

people that hold non-school qualifi cations.

The state target is to equal or better the national

average of the labour force with non-school

qualifi cations by 2014 and as the largest private

provider of management education, AIM SA

wants to play its part.

AIM SA has confi rmed its commitment to

increasing the number of South Australians who

hold a non-school qualifi cation by becoming an

Alliance Member – SA Strategic Plan. With our

core purpose of ‘developing better managers

and leaders for a better society’, AIM SA will

work with the government, organisations and

individuals to help guarantee this state’s future

prosperity.

To help achieve these important objectives,

AIM SA incorporates assessment fees into

each of its nationally accredited programs.

AIM SA Program Assessment

Training is no longer an option . . . it hasbecome a necessity for career developmentand successful business.

This ensures that the enrolment process is fast

and easy and you are ready to go when you

attend your fi rst training program.

The Assessment Process is not diffi cult!

The assessment process is not a daunting or

even diffi cult one. It is a critical way to

consolidate what has been learnt and supports

the direct application of the new learning into the

work place, providing a measurable return on

investment to both the employer and employee.

Over 80% of AIM SA programs are nationally

accredited which means assessment is available

on all of these offerings.

AIM SA utilises a variety of assessment

techniques for each program thereby maximising

learning outcomes.

Some of the assessment techniques include:

• Written questions and answers• Application workbooks• Workplace evidence• Workplace projects• Third-party comments

By actively using a variety of assessment tools,

AIM SA ensures that participants can

demonstrate competency in the new skills

acquired.

If you do not agree with an outcome of “Not Yet

Competent” please see the AIM SA grievance

and appeals procedure in this Directory.

AIM SA Program Assessment

Assessment for Learning

Research has shown (Black, P & William, D

1998, Inside the Black Box) that assessment for

learning is one of the most powerful ways of

improving learning and raising standards.

Assessment for learning is the process of

seeking and interpreting evidence for use by

learners and their teachers to decide where the

learners are in their learning, where they need to

go, and how best to get there. (Assessment

Reform Group, UK 2002)

The following Assesment for Learning ideas are

at the core of the AIM SA assessment process.

1. Students need to know what skills,

knowledge or understanding they are expected

to learn, so they can improve their performance.

2. Students need to be told how they will be

assessed, so that they can judge for themselves

whether or not they have learned what they

were expected to.

3. ‘Comment-only’ feedback is more effective

aid to learning than ‘comment plus grade’ or

‘grade only’ feedback.

4. It is crucial that students learn how to

self-assess so they can monitor their own

learning, and teachers must consciously build in

opportunities for this to happen.

5. Students can be taught how to provide

effective feedback to their peers, and this

process benefi ts both the student who gives the

feedback and the student who receives it.

6. Assessment activities designed to produce an

evaluation of student performance can also be

used in formative ways.

Assessment Fees

There are no additional charges for assessment,

provided assessments are submitted within

12 months from date of program completion.

After this time assessments submitted will incur

the following fee:

National Recognition and Credit Transfer

How Credit Transfer works - what happens?

If you wish to include Units of Competency

obtained from a Registered Training Organisation

(RTO), you must provide a certifi ed copy or

original Statement of Attainment for verifi cation.

To be recognised for Credit Transfer,

Statements of Attainment must be:

• A current qualifi cation or unit of competency• Acceptable within the guidelines of the relevant

Nationally Endorsed Training Package• Issued by a Registered Training Organisation

(RTO) who is registered to issue the

Statement of Attainment• Verifi ed by AIM SA.

The Statement of Attainment must contain:

• The Registered Training Organisation (RTO) Name• The Registered Training Organisation (RTO)

National and State Code• The Unit of Competency National Code

If the Statement of Attainment does not include

this information, you will need to provide a letter

from the Registered Training Organisation (RTO),

detailing the information.

On receipt of the original Statement of

Attainment, AIM SA will check that the Statement

of Attainment can be used toward the

qualifi cation and advise you accordingly.

National Recognition is the recognition of Qualifi cations and Statements of Attainment issued by professional Registered Training Organisations (RTO’s).

Page 117: Directory 2011 Final

RPL looks at:

• Formal and informal training programs: e.g.

School, AIM SA, University, and/or sessions run

by other training bodies

• Life experience: e.g. Community group

involvement, family activities, sports, hobbies,

business pursuits, household management

• Work experience: e.g. On the job training or on

the job experience

It is important to apply for RPL if you think you

already have the experience relevant to the Units

of Competency contained in a program. The

advantages of applying for RPL are:

• You identify where your experience has provided

you with the knowledge and skills required by

the Units of Competency

• You will fi nish your qualifi cation earlier and attend

fewer days of training

• You only attend programs that are new and

challenging; you don’t attend programs in which

you have proven experience

How will RPL be assessed?

Some of the methods used may include:

• Practical demonstrations, make a presentation,

speech, etc• Oral assessment before the interview panel• Participation in a role play• Written tests• Completion of a project• Provision of further documentation e.g. letters of

support from a supervisor, certifi cates from other

programs, portfolio of supporting evidence.

If you do not agree with an outcome of “Not Yet

Competent” please see the AIM SA grievance

and appeals procedure in this Directory.

Skills Recognition - Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is the process of formally acknowledging the skillsand knowledge you have and measuring them against the Units of Competency included ina training program.
