Welcome to the Go Train Student information pages.
Before you enrol or enter into a contract for our training you must read about, and understand the training, assessment and support services we also provide. We are also legally obliged as a responsible Registered Training Organisation (RTO) to explain your rights and obligations as a student of our RTO, and outline the policies and procedures we and you must follow before, during and after your training. On our website, we outline what is required of you, and what outcomes you will achieve when you complete your chosen course of study.
If you have found your way to this RTO Management System (RMS) website for the first time, you would have done so via links from our Go Train website. From here in the RMS, we manage and administer the daily operation of our RTO, and provide you with all the information you will need before, during and after your training experience with Go Train. Essentially, this RMS is a second website or the 'backend' of our online college. We run this RMS in the background to the main website to facilitate the sharing of information between our Learner Management System (LMS), our Servers, the Website and You.
Before you enrol in any of our courses you must read all of the following information, terms and conditions:
1. Student Guide / RMS pages
The content of these pages in the RMS is your Student Guide. This RMS provides detailed advice and instructions to you, on a wide range of administrative topics related to your training and assessment experience with us. The RMS provides you with detailed summary information on what you will need before, during and after enrolment in one of our units or courses, and you are expected to refer to this RMS before seeking email or verbal assistance from GTI staff. You should treat this RMS as your primary reference point and instruction guide whilst undertaking your training with Go Train.
2. Student Enrolment
To enrol in any of our courses you must first start at the RTO Website. This is a critical part of the enrolment procedure. Each unit requires the use of different pieces of equipment and facilities which you must provide access to and have in place before you enrol. Some units you can proceed with online training immediately, others require correspondence between us and your employer
These specific entry requirements are outlined for you on the website, which you must read first. On the website there are documents in some units that also need to be downloaded and completed before you register and purchase the unit.
If you already are a student enrolled in another course, you can undertake multiple courses at the same time. It is possible to directly enrol from within your student portal, but you must first read the course information before you do so.
Please note ** By registering for the unit you are not automatically classed as an enrolled student. You only become officially 'enrolled' in a unit when we have reviewed your registration and the documents you supply. We must also ensure that your general health and safety will not be compromised whilst you complete your training, and determine that you can meet all the units specific equipment and academic entry requirements.

7. Complaints and Academic Appeals
Go Train takes all forms of complaints extremely seriously.

8. Practical Placement Agreements (PPA)
Practical Placement is a vital component of the training and assessment delivered by distance and online at Go Train. It is the central component of the skills development and learning that you undertake to gain competency in your Nationally Recognised unit. The PPA is the critical document we use to assess your suitability for entry into an online unit or course. You will not gain entry to the final exam in any course that requires a PPA, until we can be sure you have access to suitable equipment and facilities.
It is your obligation to seek out a Venue with the required equipment and facilities before you register for any unit. It is expected that you will use the facilities of your current place of employment or training organisation. If this is not possible you can use the facilities of any other Hospitality Enterprise or Hospitality Training Venue, as long as permission is given by the employer of the Venue, and that the Venue has all the equipment as listed in the ‘Equipment Check-list’ at the rear of the respective units PPA.
To complete this entry requirement, you simply download the PPA from the website, present it to your employer/ venue manager to seek formal permission to use the Venues resources for the purposes of completing your skills training and assessments. The employer needs to complete it for you and you both must sign the agreement. You then make a scanned copy and upload it after you enrol, into your Student Profile. Once you have uploaded it to your profile, your assessor will receive an email notifying them that the PPA is ready for review and validation
