The AHC Training Package collection includes resources for wool handling, landscaping and production horticulture. Think about the work site before deciding which format to purchase. A landscaping group may need a site where it can prepare an area and carry out a practical task. A production horticulture cohort may need access to plants, materials and seasonal activities. A wool handling group will have different equipment, work roles and records to consider.
Choose the qualification with the site in mind
The collection contains listings at Certificate II and Certificate III as well as higher qualification levels. Several qualifications can share the same title across different codes. Check the exact code and release against your delivery plan before comparing prices or formats. For each selected unit, identify where the learner will practise and who is responsible for access. A field activity on a training plot, work with an employer and a scheduled classroom session put different demands on your team.
Supply the practical conditions
Check the site, tools, materials and supervision your RTO can arrange. The season may affect what can be observed in a horticulture program. Weather or work schedules can affect access to a landscaping site. Discuss the actual arrangements with the trainer before ordering, and identify any permission or site induction needed for the selected activities. An ERF Checklist can help organise that review. Use a Session Plan to see whether the intended work fits the travel, preparation and practical time available.
Worked example: planning a landscaping task
Give the group a training plot, a simple site sketch and a brief that states the outcome. Ask each learner to plan the preparation and identify the tools they will need. Change one site condition for a later session and discuss how the plan changes. Read the learner material to see where it explains the task, then review the assessment documents to see how a learner could demonstrate it. Record which equipment the site can supply and whether there is enough space for learners to work and for an assessor to observe.
Worked example: recording a horticulture activity
Select a practical activity that fits the season and plants the RTO can access. Have the learner identify the activity, record the site conditions and explain what they will check afterwards. A workplace supervisor may be able to confirm when the activity occurred. Ask the assessor which records or observations they need and how those can be gathered across sessions. If the activity depends on a particular growth stage, decide what alternate scheduling or site arrangements are possible before choosing the resource.
Select materials by function
If your trainer already has a site activity and records, look first at the Assessment Kit and identify whether it supplies the instructions and recording tools required. A combined learning and assessment kit is relevant where the program also needs explanations and learning activities. Compare Vocational Placement Kits when the workplace will support delivery. When requesting a sample, state the unit or qualification code, the delivery setting and which equipment is already available.
