Complaints & Appeals Policy
Complaints arise when a client is not satisfied with an aspect of our services and requests action to be taken to resolve the matter. Appeals arise when a client is not satisfied with a decision that we have made on an assessment.
All complaints and appeals are managed by Building Industry Training in a fair, efficient and effective manner, in an environment where student’s views are valued. Through the process of inquiry, all complaints and appeals are scrutinised to identify potential causes with a view to initiating corrective action to eliminate or mitigate the likelihood of reoccurrence.
All details regarding complaints and appeals are kept in strict confidence and written materials are securely maintained. The Building Industry Training Complaints and Appeals Policy is available on the website and within the Student Handbook given prior to enrolment.
Any student wishing to make a complaint can do so by completing the Complaints and Appeals form in the back of the Student Handbook, or request one from the administrative staff or trainer. A written complaint not on the provided form will still be considered in the same manner, providing there is sufficient information to make the investigation process feasible.
The principles of natural justice and procedural fairness are adhered to at all times. Complaints involving the conduct of Building Industry Training, its trainers and assessors or other staff, or a student of Building Industry Training are dealt with in the following manner:
- Informal complaints. During the initial stages of a complaint the complainant is encouraged to communicate directly with the trainer, RTO Manager or other staff member with whom they feel comfortable. If the complaint is resolved at this level then no further action is required.
- Formal complaints. These are lodged in the Complaint Register and acknowledged in writing as soon as practical after receipt.
The complaint is brought to the attention of the Managing Director and forwarded through the continuous improvements process for investigation in a confidential, fair and sensitive manner. After the complaint has been fully investigated, a written response will be provided to the complainant within 60 calendar days from lodgement. There is no cost for this process.
Students will be able to appeal assessment decisions by accessing the appeals procedures in the Student Handbook or requesting a copy from their Trainer or the administrative staff. Appeals will be acknowledged in writing as soon as practical after receipt and promptly dealt with.
Building Industry Training will provide the appellant with access to an independent qualified assessor for re-assessment where appropriate. A written statement including reasons for the decision will be provided to the appellant within 60 days from lodgement of the appeal.
Where a person is dissatisfied with the outcome, they may then complain to the Managing Director, who will seek an external party to make a decision and record the outcome of the complaint/appeal. In the event that the complainant/appellant is dissatisfied with the determination of the external party, they will be referred to http://www.asqa.gov.au/complaints/making-a-complaint.html where they are able to follow due process as outlined by Australian Skills Quality Authority (ASQA).
If Building Industry Training considers that more than 60 days are required to process and finalise the complaint or appeal, they will advise the complainant in writing and outline the reasons for the delay. Regular updates on the progress of the complaint will also be made.

Bits and Pieces
On 1 January 2015 it became mandatory for all students (in Australia) undertaking nationally recognised training to apply for a Unique Student Identifier (USI). This is an alphanumeric number assigned to you, which records all of your training and results in the one safe place. No more misplaced certificates or confusion about when and where you completed training. You will be able to manage your own records and print them out or send them to a potential employer or training organisation if you are undertaking further training. Your USI will stay with you throughout your life, but will be needed to enrol in any nationally accredited training that you undertake, so keep it recorded in a safe place.
