Project streamsBusiness-training provider partnership projects involve a demonstrable relationship with one or more businesses and/or employers who have engaged the services of the RTO to embed e-learning solutions in that workplace or business.
Empowering learners projects target the needs of individuals in the community or existing and future learners of the RTO through stimulating demand, providing greater choice, responding to the needs of disadvantaged learners and through facilitating increased RPL (recognition of prior learning).

Ask yourself this/ What is your need? and how will E-Learning address it?/ Who are your learners how will they benefit/ Identify which stream suits your context/ How does your project support the strategic priorities of the
Framework & Sydney Institute/ Is you project building on what is already in place/ Has another team already done what you are planning?/ Who could you partner with?/ Think about a team, project manager, facilitator etc.
Ambition in Action

Tips for a successful application/ Build on from, and acknowledge, past projects/ Narrow your project right down – don’t try to do too much/ Describe how your project will survive long term – it must be sustainable/ Don’t be a one person show, don’t write project for others/ Engage passionate and engaged team members/ Make business partnerships REAL – build on existing relationships
rather than establishing new ones/ Involve students – get their input and feedback/ Be realistic in your budget – don’t overcharge and don’t make up items
– the selection panel reads them carefully and know what things cost/ Make connections with other Framework teams, in and beyond TAFE
